I JUST moved, and all of my books, except for about 2 of 'em, are in boxes, unpacked cause the room has a very & tacky deep blue paint with some scary white sponge rollie thingie all over it and the landlady is supposed to paint it. Normally, I organise my library of books according to subject. When I have several books by one author, I place them together. I have very little fiction, except for just a few of the so called "classics." I used to have many more times the books, but after all the unusual circumstances which have had me galavanting across the country in recent years, I have had to let go of many, many favorite books. Sad, cause I love reading, & I love having favorite books around to reread, & rereread again. Now, when I shop in the 2nd hand stores & used bookstores, & see a copy of favorite book which I used to have, I just have to get it for my future reading enjoyment. I have about 3 bookcases with 5 shelves about a yard wide, mostly filled with books. This does not include my music library! That is all in my music studio, and the subject of a bit different topic.
