I have to be completely honest…I don’t own my own coffee table (a problem that comes with living at home). But although I’m coffee table-less I am completely in love with the perfect books that belong on one. I’ve slowly been acquiring my own collection, for my future coffee table of course. But the things you keep on your coffee table say a lot abut who you are and what you love.
I think it’s important that your coffee table books reflect your taste and personality, especially since they are on display in your home. Without further ado, start the slideshow below to see 10 coffee table books I am loving at the moment:
