And the right hand side:

 

[chilango]

My shelves at work. A rather random assortment...

The cateloguing could do with tidying up, but some grea t books, plenty of them (there are some I recognise in there for sure)

 

[bimble]

My shelves are definitely not colour coordinated because that would be really embarrassing.

We have a senior figure from the library world staying over at the moment. I mentioned it was a suggestion that we
put our books in colour order. To say he was offended was an under statement.

His eyes no doubt went positively Dewey at the very thought

The well-thumbed copy of Fierce Dancing does rather place you in time and space, you filthy fortysomething hippie

I've made all my shelves mate from reclaimed timber.

Just In the middle of building new one.

That’s nothing. At home it’d be shelved alongside these.

Is it just me that keeps reading this thread title as voiced by Sean Connery?

Hold onto Copse, that's likely to be worth a fortune...as I recently discovered after looking into replacing the two copies I gave away

I’ve lost my copy of Earth First! And the Anti-roads movement though, sadly. And some early Do or Dies!. There’s at least one whole box of books of mine awol somewhere.

 

[Nine Bob Note]

Two years, and nearly two grand later I think I've bought about four books in that time

 

[chilango]

A few changes to these shelves, so a shameless bump.

Here are my shelves: originally colour coded but I need to tidy up soon




And fuck the haters because the other side of the room looks like this

 

[ShiftyBagLady]

Arrgh, I fucked in the pictures but you get the point!
Edit: fixed it. Don't ask for close ups!

The coding looks great. Mrs Tag wants to do that, but how do you find anything
Besides, all our shelves are wood coloured, it wouldn't look so great

For me, because I like books, I usually relate the cover to the book. So I'll know my Madame Bovary is in black just because I've held it so many times

We have about 3000 at a guess. I have at least 20 waiting to read, many more I want to go through again. I could find one or two like that, certainly not most.
are all our French classics black even, probably not. I could not tell you what colour Candide or the age of reason is. We have the little prince, with and without parallel text. That might be blue or yellow.
Bill Bryson is...? Eric Newly; black?
