Thanks Eliot, I was looking forward to this. For the books that Luna loved, you can make your own dust jacket. Quick and easy is pretty wrapping paper. For the artist with time on her hands, an appropriate sketch is more fun.
Oh wow! It looks so good!!! I'm going to have to follow you on Instagram so I can participate if you do polls for this again!!! Luna craves books like you! She Just doesn't know how to digest them In the correct way!!!
How can you have Neal Shusterman's Scythe series and NOT have the Unwind series?!?! That made me fall in love with his writing! Its somehow more disturbing than Scythe and I love it 😂
Great video, and I'm impressed by much you dedicate to planning your bookshelves! You're taking the Christmas decorations down so early. I feel like most people tend to wait till the new year to take them down.
My dog ate a few books when she was young and bored. Nothing a stuffed frozen kong toy won’t fix! I miss having lots of books. My weird house mostly seems to consist of doors and windows.
Having worked several years at a bookstore I’m pretty set how my books are organized. Hardbacks & paperbacks separate, divided into genres, alphabetized by author. Larger books are usually separate. I’d never find anything if I organized differently since I have 10,000+ books. I’ve seen a few videos where people have them organized by color and that seems like chaos to me. But in the end I guess it comes down to what works best for the person.
Awe man. When my dog was a puppy, I came home one day and he had literally killed some of my books. Pages were thrown everywhere. There was no salvaging them. I will always have my books in a room I can lock dogs out of now 😅
"Along the entire bottom... where Luna's butt is currently covering." Bahahaha! I loved this reorganisation! Good luck with your 2020 reading plans :D I spy Malice, I'm also hoping to read that in 2020!
I love organizing things, but most especially reorganizing my shelves! I just finished doing that yesterday and I’m so happy with how my shelves turned out 😊 Yours look great!
Elliot I love Luna but she's ruined quite a few books by now, and it will get cumbersome. Why not get glass doors installed on your bookshelves? On the lower shelves at least....
I'm so gald that SO FAR my white husky pup hasn't taken a liking to chewing up my books. She's basically ignored the ones I keep on my shelves but has gone after my sisters sketch pads and a few magazines. Bleh, gotta love them.
Beautiful! I organize mine by last name of author which is more chaotic looking but also oddly satisfying too! But that means your book is sandwiched between jim butcher and Marie brennen!
Hello! Just wanted to let you know Elliot that Amazon released "Blade of the Immortal" anime series. It is absolutely amazing. A few things were skipped and moved around to save time but the animation and attention to detail is by far the best I have seen. The art style mimics the manga. I can honestly say it's better than the previous one that was released. My favorite manga by far. Not too many people talk about it.
Nice library :) You will definitely need more shelves soon. I was pleased to see You have Cook's Black Company but I also see some glaring omissions like Le Guin's Earthsea cycle, Zelazny's Amber Chronicles or Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis. And since your husband has Samurai Executioner he should also get Lone Wolf and Cub :)
I have my heavier graphic novels on the middle shelf of my small unit and have my art history books on the bottom. All the art history books are at least 1.25 kg each, and I have a couple that weigh almost 4 kg each. Man, I'd love three or four more bookshelves! lol.
I have noticed an uptick in red rising hate when it was almost non existent before, I think part of it is that the people who have gotten into it in the last couple years it seems like an overnight success when it has been building and growing momentum for a long time and there’s anything these days that is popular there will be people who hate it for that reason alone
Personally I have no understanding of the appeal for books being turned around on a shelf. How would you know where anything is? I like the look of the spines too.
I started Vinland Saga in December! I’ve read the first two bind ups, so first four volumes. Is it weird to be thinking that the main character could be written out of the story and it wouldn’t affect it at all? Because that’s how I’m feeling about it at the moment 😂
Wait. You don't have the First Law Trilogy anymore? -mouth agape- Also, don't forget to remind the hubby about the fancy Omega Men hardcover coming in 2020!
I dont know how it would work on your shelf (I personally have books on display in more places than my shelvez) but I think your polish (I think they're polish) mistborn are TOO cool not have forward facing.
I’ve heard of it, but we haven’t tried it. Our coffee table has wheels, so we’ve been just positioning it so she can’t get to the books if we leave for a bit 😆
Hi, this was a really fun video! I was wondering if you have any fantasy recommendations for someone who wants to go from YA to adult for the first time.
My books are just everywhere. I hate organizing my collection because I do it all day at work in the library. Want to come over and organize my books next? Lol
I have to stop watching organizing shelves videos because I get so excited to do my own.... But I live in a 30m2 studio with my boyfriend and have only 4 shelves for me so I can't do much :( soon though we are moving...
Since I've watched you and other readers, for my recommendations I've always thought you were the oddest. I have unsubscribed to some I'm still subscribed to you like your recs but odd shelves. Much better
