Bookshelf 4:
Red Ikea 6 shelf unit. You can only see part of the bookcase as it is hidden behind various bags of stuff I need to sort through! This photo shows the top two shelves. The back row of both shelves features videos. The front of the top shelf are some of my dvd boxsets including Buffy, Angel and history boxsets about wars US Presidents. The front of the lower shelf is my paperback mountain climbing books, along with the Cursed Child and Fantastic Beasts books. On the wall are the masks I bought in South Africa on my last visit. The mess on the left needs to be ignored thank you!
The next two shelves can hardly be seen behind that red sleeping bag-don't ask!-the back of these shelves have books on war, history and other non fiction things. The front of the first shelf are YA series by Suzy Turner, David Estes, DelSheree Gladden and mafia novels. The front of the lower shelf is mainly Indie and self published including John Hartness, Rhiannon Frater, Philip Henry and KA Stewart.
The bottom two shelves are encyclopedias and an Elvis magazine and dvd collection.
Bookshelf 5:
MFI Black 5 shelf unit. These are my main apocalypse and zombie books, and the back of these shelves are dvd docs and disaster videos, assorted horror books.
Here is a close up of the first two shelves. The top shelf is my Michael Stephen Fuchs and G Michael Hopf series. The second shelf is just my Darrell Maloney books!
The next shelf has my Dirk Patton and A American books.
The bottom two shelves are a bit hidden behind the plastic drawers I keep my clothes in so apologies for the quality! These are my ZA Recht, JL Bourne, Arthur T Bradley, Eli Constant, David Nelson, Bobby Adair, Rachel Aukes, Ben Reeder, and lots more! The bit of orange fur is my King Louie cuddly toy!
This is the 3 shelf bookcase beside my bed. The bottom shelf is hidden behind piles of books at the moment! The top shelf are my audio cds for Harry Potter and Game of Thrones, and my dvds of Harry Potter and Jurassic Park! The other two shelves are my prepper non fiction books, Harry Potter paperbacks and Coronation Street DVD box sets. The piles of books are a mixture of apocalypse, politics, horror...most of what I bought recently and have nowhere to put them! Note the handy baseball bat for defence right beside the bed!
So you can see the size of the task ahead of me for tidying up the shelves and getting everything looking nice and neat but I hope to get stuck into that this year! Wish me luck, I'll need it!
Wow, you have a lot of books. I get rid of most of my books after I read them, but I still have a closet and a dresser full of books. I need more shelves. Good luck with organizing the Book Cave!

I think I have 200ish on the ereaders and the rest of the tbr is there in all it's glory along with those I've loved and kept. It is a nightmare to look at but I kind of love them anyway!
DeleteOh my goodness, your shelves look a lot like mine! I do try to keep my shelves somewhat organized, but when you have too many books and too little shelf space, what are you going to do, right? :)

I'm glad someone else has this shelf control problem! That makes me feel better...Definitely too many books and not enough space!
DeleteYep, looks like my computer room. I have books EVERYWHERE! And I just woke up today to a stack of like 30 books that my cat knocked on the floor...Was feeling mildly homicidal for a few minutes.
ReplyDeleteIt's comforting to have the books all around you, giving you their love! Ah a good reason not to have a cat!
DeleteI've run out of space and have book piles all over the house, including closets. Every now and then I try to organize them. Doesn't last much longer than the next delivery from the postman.LOL
ReplyDeleteI feel quite comforted by knowing others have similar book pile issues! I've already ordered a few new arrivals for the New Year!
