A Place for All My Books: Collectible Pin Cards is an expansion for A Place for All My Books released in 2025 for 1–4 players, 40–60 minutes per game, and ages 10 and up.

We have been thrilled to be able to feature the art of Naomi Lord in A Place for All My Books. Her work is so charming and warm that it really sets the tone for the world of the game. As a way to celebrate her art, we are introducing a new set of 6 exclusive Other Neat Stuff cards. In the Other Neat Stuff deck, there are six "board games" with a set-collection mechanic. The more you collect, the more you score at the end of the game. What if we gave players something else they love to collect in the game? And - what if we turned that into a way for Naomi to showcase existing works from her gallery? So we talked with Naomi and she identified six of her favorite pieces, a whimsical set of dragons!! And we put them into the world of the game as Collectible Pins! So, you can swap out the board game cards - or just add them in to give players two different things to collect in the game. In any case, these will not be in the generally released games. They are a Kickstarter backer exclusive. —description from the publisher
