what do your bookshelves look like?

"book buying problem"

music books from north to south

south to north is more higgledy-piggledy tbh: some fiction, some art & design, some theory, music starts roughly at the arch*

*the arch is the side of this little building, the corridor is literally a bridge between two buildings, this is the best flat ever -- two bits joined by a bridge, it's like venice here in plymouth

Jean Baudrillard, what did your bookshelves look like?

If mark ever turns his house into a bookstore I’m going to ask him “are all of these your books?”

I really wish I had taken a picture of the double-sided bookcase wall dividing the upper floor of my cabin before that cabin burned down.

The shelves stretched between the cabin's support posts that ran down the middle of the room. When the shelves were empty you could see through them from one side of the room to the other, but when they were full they formed a wall so I had a guest room.

I moved out before it burned down, so I only lost a few of my books that I hadn't bothered to move yet.

(bumping thread so my bookmarks to now-deleted posts stop reporting thread is updated when it isn't)

just here to report that my shelves aren't actually metal but built-ins painted dark green to match the walls!

I feel better now about the state of my 13 year old son's room.

jimbeaux, in all fairness, i have been like this since i was younger than 13. also i refuse to throw away good cardboard, i just used about half of the empty boxes in my photos to ship things off today.
