Reorganizing your collection. . . this is going to be great!
One word for this endeavor…….EPIC! Can not wait for this booktube event!
Looking forward to your library tours. Already making notes of books that I want to read.
A WHOLE Tour Of Your WHOLE And Good As New Library?!?! I’M ALIVE!
I blame my proclivity for wordiness on reading so much Nathaniel Hawthorne when I was a kid.
And that way, we’ll finally get a tour of that bookcase full of books about books! Along with everything else! Huzzah!!
Looking forward to the library tour!
I am in total awe of you reorganizing of your entire collection, only because I have the same set up. Bookshelves mixed with fiction, non-fiction, sf, and biography. I can’t wait for you to go through the entire library once you complete your project.
I have read so many good books that you have shown us in these bookshelf tours, and as always can’t thank you enough for taking the time to show us your personal library.
As someone who wants to build a good biography collection, this is just pure ecstasy.
Great! Can I put in a early bid for all your philosophy books collection please? 🙂
A bookshelf overhaul! I have to admit Steve, I like to rearrange your bookshelf myself. I’ll be keeping an eye for your weekly report. All the best. ☺️
Nathaniel Hawthorne was a little cutie patootie. Currently rereading The House of the Seven Gables, because I enjoyed it so much more than The Scarlet Letter when I read them 20 years ago.
