Musing Mondays is a weekly meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. Each week we will get a fun reading related question to answer. This week Musing asks:
Courtesy of Booking Through Thursday,
How do you organize/store your books? Do you go through them often? Or do you pretty much just shelve them and then leave them alone until you need them?
I’m a shelver! I do group them, though. Currently, I have them grouped by adult, read YA, TBR YA, manga, textbooks and my old books from when I was a kid, like Goosebumps, Animorphs and Christopher Pike. I am still working on getting my office area unpacked and set up, so they aren’t all on their shelves just yet, but it probably won’t get any more organized than that!
That’s how I do mine too! My top shelf is ones I need to read ASAP because if I don’t separate them, I’ll forget about them. Then YA read, YA not read, chick lit, and a whole shelf for Janet Evanovich books. Then a whole separate book case for my mysteries! 🙂
I’m a shelver, also. I organize them alphabetically by author, then by title.
I thought about that, but then when I get an A author, then I would just have to do through and move everything!
Yeah my RIGHT NOW TBR is also my top shelf. I also have a special shelf for book to movie adaptations with the books and DVDs.
Sadly I only have one book from when I was a kid – I don’t recall owning a lot of books then but we used the library every week.
I got mine from the school book fairs, and I am a bit of a hoarder, so of course I kept them over the years 🙂
I like it! I sounds similar to my organization, sort of.
Have a great week!

Good luck with unpacking the rest. I love full shelves.
Thanks for dropping by on my musing monday
