The ones I play most are nearest the front on the double stacked shelves.<BR/><BR/>Books in some sort of order. Basic categories are classics from when I was growing up (Dickens, Brontes, George Eliot etc), Ethel Turner collection, my father's collection of 1890s and 1930s fiction and commentary on it, New Zealand non-fiction - much of it also from my father, university texts in French and German, reference books like big dictionaries, large books on the bottom, and the rest of it (fiction and biography) that I have bought and read recently or am waiting to read, or waiting to give away shoved in anywhere it fits. Even though I am a librarian by training I have enough of alphabetical order at work and have never arranged anything that way at home!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6254679.post-1133209166834327912005-11-29T09:19:00.000+13:002005-11-29T09:19:00.000+13:00There are few things more appealing in a home than...There are few things more appealing in a home than a wall of books. My definition of happiness: leave me alone in a quiet room full of books with a comfy chair and a cup of coffee.<BR/><BR/>My family often rents/borrows/swaps houses for our holidays, and one of the joys of a relaxing holiday is lazy days reading selections from someone else's bookshelf.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
