Susan - I can...Mystica - and I did, eventually!<br /><br />Susan - I can't imagine a bedroom without books, how cold and empty it would feel!<br /><br />Annabel - aren't they lovely together? They always get comments and compliments.<br /><br />Tom - enough to keep me going for a while!<br /><br />Verity - haha, although I sort of found it a chore, I also enjoyed it, and wouldn't be able to let anyone else do the task...<br /><br />Simon Thomas - gosh, what a coincidence! I was confused when I saw your comment come in. I do like your blog too.<br /><br />Simon S - mayhem it definitely was - I always forget how much mayhem moving causes...<br /><br />Jodie - that sounds less fun... but I suppose it's all over now :)<br /><br />Hayley - gosh! I am worried about when all my books are reunited... that will take years to organise.<br /><br />Iliana - when I have all my books (soooo many still at home with my parents) it'll be great fun, but huge work, to organise them all and discover lost gems.<br /><br />Liz - I've gone for a compromise of organisation and disorganisation - I think it would horrify most librarians(!)<br /><br />Anita - haha, oh dear!<br /><br />acc - the colour arrangements are lovely, aren't they? I'm sure I'll reorganise mine before too long...StuckInABookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10017836017530130716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-41213896450287530072010-08-07T07:52:49.944+01:002010-08-07T07:52:49.944+01:00love the bears in the corner :)
Organising books ...love the bears in the corner :)<br /><br />Organising books is one of those things that feels like a cross between a chore and a pleasure. The end result is oh-so-gratifying, but at least for me, trying to figure out the best way to arrange books is a nightmare and a half. <br /><br />At the moment, I have my books sorted alphabetically by publisher and author - but I really don't know how practical that is. And then one sees all those lovely posts in the blogging world which arranges books by colour.... <br /><br />Love the Persephone collection by the way!anothercookiecrumbleshttp://www.anothercookiecrumbles.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-4369042913734209232010-08-06T16:47:38.906+01:002010-08-06T16:47:38.906+01:00Your earlier photographs look like my bookshelves ...Your earlier photographs look like my bookshelves do--and I moved 4 years ago!<br />anita<br />wanderingbetweentwoworlds.blogspot.comAnita Mathiashttp://wanderingbetweentwoworlds@blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-77615813192157977272010-08-05T20:26:49.688+01:002010-08-05T20:26:49.688+01:00Deciding how to organize your books is such a job,...Deciding how to organize your books is such a job, sometimes, when you have the time and the energy...

Goodness, now that I'm trying to bombard you with all those wonderful book quotes, my old brain just went blank.
