The Enloe bookcase I ordered last November finally came, and I've loaded it with some of my favorite books, photos, and other items--all with special meaning and memories. Holders for my collection of Victoria magazines, which are too beautiful to toss, are on order. No more books for me. This bookcase is full. #books #bookcase #bookworm
