Ben Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Gyre, that's hardly fair embarrassing us all with your amazing bookcase. Lol. It's great though, hopefully I'll have as many books as that one day.. don't think I'm that far off really. Quote
Weave Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 You will get there, you are halfway there by the sounds of it x Quote
anisia Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 I finally got around to taking pics. The only way I keep my books organized is by separating the English books from the Romanian ones. My guinea pigs are mandatory in the photos as I am too lazy to crop the pics Quote
Lucybird Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 (edited) So I decided to take a picture of all the shelves that have my books in, although not all the books are mine! Whoops! The expand tags don't work on this forum...sorry about all the sapce taken up Edited March 24, 2009 by Lucybird Quote
Weave Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 I like your bookshelves Lucy, they have loads of character x Quote
Chrissy Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Does anyone else tilt their heads sideways to check out the book spines? It's automatic to me whenever I see a shelf of books! Quote
Lucybird Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 lol well I read the spines but not as far as tilting my head. Is character just a nice way of saying they're a mess? We really do not have enough space for books in this house Quote
Heather Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Does anyone else tilt their heads sideways to check out the book spines? It's automatic to me whenever I see a shelf of books! I do that when the books are low down and I want to read the titles Quote
Weave Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Is character just a nice way of saying they're a mess? We really do not have enough space for books in this house No, I mean your wee mementos and photos x Quote
Lucybird Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 ah, they're mainly my sister's, we share the bookcases Quote
Charm Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Gyre, Anisia and Lucybird your bookshelves are brill! I can't wait to get all my books unpacked and back in their rightful place Quote
chrysalis_stage Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 I must admit my uni collection is pitiful compared to all your bookcases but I'll take a pic of my lovelys at home when I can. Quote
Ben Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 That's true, I've lost my phone though.. so not sure when I'll be able to get a picture. Quote
bethany725 Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Wow! I can't believe how many books you have, Lucybird! And I've never seen so many Jodi Picoults in one place.. Good for you! Quote
Lucybird Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 lol well they aren't all mine, I don't have a bookcase which only has my books in. And yes the only Jodi Picoult I don't own is her most recent one Quote
lexiepiper Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 This was in January, not long after joining the forum... and this is now, about 9 weeks later... Still the same system of: Shelves 1 & 2 are TBR books Shelf 3 is random books I've read and want to keep Shelf 4 are series/author sets Shelf 5 are series sets Shelf 6 are big books; hardbacks, tall paperbacks etc basically they wont fit on any other shelf As you can see, TBR has grown considerably I had to add another row to shelf 4 too because I ran out of room to put read books. It wont be long before I need another shelf! Quote
Lucybird Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 lol quite a lot fuller now, I spy a few that aare on my own shelves Quote
chrysalis_stage Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 (edited) @ Lexie - It warms my soul to see lots of Gerritsens lined up Looks like mine at home I spy Celia Rees too Edited March 26, 2009 by chrysalis_stage Quote
Inver Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Nice and tidy shelves there Lexie and like others recognise a few I have too Quote
