This past week was pretty uneventful in my life. Last
weekend I brought home a new bookcase as I had run out of shelf space for all
of the books I have hauled this year. It required some reorganizing
in my bedroom and I have to say that I am happier with my new setup. Here is a
picture of the bookcase:

He isn't very happy now that it is full of books. As you can see it isn’t very big but I didn’t want to
clutter up that space too much. Now all of my books are in place and I am very
pleased with how it all came together. As my main bookcase is in my living-room
I wanted to display my books in a more presentable way. I’ve seen so many great
shelf tours on BookTube and I am just amazed at how beautifully arranged some
people’s collections are. My library pales in comparison, but it looks a hell
of a lot better than it did. Even my boyfriend likes it, but to be honest I
think he is just glad they aren’t all piled in a corner anymore, ha. Stay tuned
for a shelf tour coming up soon.

ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Thank you AJ.
DeleteNew bookshelves are always good, enjoy! Shelf tours are fun, it's nice to see how other readers arrange their books.
ReplyDeleteNice travel post, I think it's neat you can visit Anne of Green Gables locations. Have a super week.
I agree, I enjoy seeing how other people arrange their shelves as well.
DeleteThank you for stopping by Greg. Hope you have a super week as well.
I have such a small room and so many books it's a nightmare. Your cat is so cute. :) I have seen loads of people loving Anne And Henry. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteMegan @ http://readingawaythedays.blogspot.co.uk
Thank you Megan, I think he is cute too. I'm a bit biased though hehe. I'm really curious to see how the author approaches the Anne and Henry in modern times. It will be interesting.
DeleteTehe, my cat's has the same obsession with shelves!

Its so cute though.
DeleteI remember buying new bookshelves two or maybe it was three years ago...and now I am purging and giving away shelves to my daughter! LOL
ReplyDeleteBut I started thinking about how, when/if I move at some point, I didn't want the same scenario I had last time...it was exhausting sorting out the books afterwards.
But I'm sure your situation is different...enjoy!
There is nothing better than gazing at books surrounding you...
Here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
I definitely see your point. We do plan to stay where we are for a little while longer, so I'm sure I will accumulate even more books by the time we move. I'm trying to be a good girl though, heh.
DeleteThanks for stopping by.
LOL, did you fill kitties nook with books..:) I need a few more bookshelves myself! Hope your week is amazing.
ReplyDeleteYes, my books really needed a home lol. Plus my kitten has plenty of other spots to choose from so he will get over it.. Or I will come in one day to my books all over the floor and him napping on an empty shelf, lol!
DeleteHope you have an amazing week as well. :)
Your kitty is adorable! That picture with him in the new bookcase is too cute. I could use another bookshelf as well as I am runnign out of shelfspace. Maybe early next year I can get a new one.
ReplyDeleteHow are you liking Pane and Suffering? I read it this week and thought the glass shop setting was done well, but beside that it was just an okay read for me. I hope you have a great week!
Aw thanks Lola. He thinks everything that comes through the door is for him, lol. Hope you are able to get a new bookshelf at some point.
DeleteSo far Pane and Suffering is keeping my attention. I also like the glass shop setting, but I am questioning the main character a bit already..
Hope you have a great week as well.
Congratulations on your new bookcase! You should definitely celebrate :D I had to giggle at the kitty on the shelf, looked like s/he was guarding it from books! lol!!
ReplyDeleteOn another note, The Imposter has a great cover! I hope you enjoy it :)
Have a great week,
Amy x
Haha thank you Amy. How exactly does one celebrate a new bookcase? Should I crack open a bottle or something? :)
DeleteHe just thought the new bookcase was a new play spot for him. It was cute.
I agree, I really like the cover for the Impostor as well. I'm looking forward to starting it.
Hope you have a great week as well.
Yes I'd definitely crack open a bottle! he he. Whatever's your favourite ;) Us book lovers have to celebrate somehow! he he.
DeleteI love cats and their antics, they're so cute!
Haha, yes that is a good idea. :)
DeleteMy brother, SIL and niece have two cats and they have these tiny spaces in wall units and on bookshelves that their cats climb into. I have no idea how they get in or out but they tend to love sleeping in there!
ReplyDeleteOh that is so cute. I don't know how they do it either, but they love anywhere they can hide.
DeleteAt some point I'm just going to need a house with an actual room that is a library to keep up with all the books I keep getting. And I hate getting rid of them, even though I know I should. Love the cover of All Fudged Up! Enjoy your new books!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Sunday Post
That is my dream.. to have my own house with a special reading/library room. One day.. one day.
DeleteIsn't that cover cute? I'm excited to read it.. one day.
Thanks for stopping by.
