There are some beds that have bookshelves built into the headboards.
Another
possibility is taller bookcases than the ones you have.


My dream home would have a large library with a 20 foot ceiling and
lined with
shelves (and a rolling ladder!)
Better still would be to have the Morgan Libary in NYC as my own private
library!



My wife keeps asking me when I am going to stop buying books. We have
about 70 odd bookcases in the house. There are one or more (usually
considerably more) bookcases in almost every room of the house. We are
just about done refinishing a nice 3-section 8 foot high mahogany
bookcase that a retiring down the hall from my office gave me. I do
have some high ceilings, but I have not gone over eight feet yet.

LOL! I did just get a book re bibliomania, among other things.
My daughter is making noises about how I shouldn't buy books.
Yeah, right. I am somewhat pleased to find that I have some
duplicates though. Maybe I will sell them. Or trade them.
