Looking to expand your LEGO collection or curious about where to sell your own LEGO sets? LEGO Ideas continues to inspire builders around the world, and last year's Singles' Day competition, Me, Myself, I, resulted in an incredible winner: Reading, Reading, Reading by designer Fr_An. This fan-favorite has now become set 40698 Books Are My Passion and will be available as a gift with purchase at LEGO.com for those who spend over $130 / €130 / £130 between October 28th and November 11th.
A Charming Addition for LEGO Collectors
Built on a 12x12 stud base, Books Are My Passion stands at about 13cm tall and creates a cozy reading nook scene, ideal for both book and LEGO enthusiasts. If you’re a LEGO fan looking to buy, sell, or add to your collection, this set offers something truly special. The model includes a minifigure lounging in a classic leather chair, a cup of Earl Grey tea on the side table, and a leafy pot plant that completes the scene. The bookcase is packed with colorful book spines, with details like a quill pen and scattered letters on the bottom shelf, making it an ideal gift or collectible.
Rare Pieces and Thoughtful Design
The Open Box 1x3 piece featured at the top of the bookcase is relatively rare, having appeared in just seven other LEGO sets—initially making its debut in Harry Potter sets as wand storage. This unique addition will excite seasoned LEGO collectors and fans alike, particularly those who may want to sell LEGO sets or expand their collection. Wondering where to sell your own LEGO?
