Just bought a great new bookshelf and made a little weekend project out of organizing it. Here’s a section in progress – recognize any of your favorite titles?
And real talk to my book blogging homies – guys, how do you organize your shelves? Is it by color, author, genre, series…? This rainbow theme make me SO HAPPY but I had to split some of the series up, which gives me anxiety…what if they miss each other??
Hope you’re all having an awesome week xx

Maybe do a rainbow and have a separate shelf for series? hahahaha. I dunno, the series broken up is giving me anxiety too. 😛 HAHAHA. But man, the colors together just makes perfect sense and is so so so good in the eyes!

I actually kind of did that! Some of the bigger series (like HP) just didn’t look right without each other. Put those on their own shelf ❤️

totally loving your shelf and how you’ve arranged it. I probably will do the same once I have a lot of books for each color. 😀

I love your shelves! So pretty! I change my shelves pretty often, especially when I do a huge book haul, I have to rearrange to fit all the books. Right now, I’m also doing the rainbow shelves. Aesthetically, it’s beautiful and visually appealing. I’ve had it for a couple of weeks now but lately it’s driving me crazy, trying to find books — especially books that I don’t know the color of. I have over 350 books so it’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack haha. Splitting up the series also gave me anxiety haha. I usually organize my books by favorites within the genre.

Dangg! If I had that many books, I’d probably need a more reliable system too ☺️

I don’t have a bookshelf anymore (thanks or no thanks to Kindle), but I have a book drawer where all my owned ones are just piled in. When I did have one though, it was always by series and in order of how much love I was feeling towards them at that point of time. 🙂

I try to sort-of arrange them by genre, very loosely. I have one bookshelf for cookbooks, one bookshelf for French-language books, one bookshelf for TBR, and my three other shelves are organized to keep authors’ works together and my favorites/the pretty ones go towards the top. I would like to do rainbow shelves (yours look so pretty!) but I don’t want to separate authors’ works from each other! Maybe I should reorganize them again… 🙂

Same, I like the colors but I feel weird about separating author’s works. So far I have a small enough collection that it works…for now! Thanks for commenting ❤

Nothing better than a new bookshelf that already mostly full!
