    When books are stacked I put the first one on the bottom, because this way if a new book in the series comes out you can just plop it on top of the pile. Also, it is so true when you say, you never know how many books you have until you pile them on the floor

    I rarely stack books, because I think it makes it harder to get to them. I pull most of my books out quite frequently to look at the cover or check out a line etc. But if I did stack them, I would put the first one on top.

      So true! To be fair, I am pro-legalization and I've always been, even though I'm not much of a user. I guess I was more concerned because I claim to have a family-friendly channel and I know the largest part of my audience is not from Canada!

    New subscriber here! This video just popped up on my reccomended, and it was just what I needed. I don't know what it is about bookshelf orginisations that motivates me to do stuff. Not one clue. But it does.
    Also. I really envy anyone who can orginise and decorate their shelves. I love the aesthetic look of it, but can't seem to do it myself. I recently orginised mine by rainbow. And I'm just about tollerating it. I love the look, but it's driving me bonkers.

    @Jennheartsqs 3 роки тому +2

    Shelves look great! You've inspired me to re-organize my own bookshelves. When I'm stacking series horizontally, I put the first book in a series on top and then put them in order going down (like you had the Ember in the Ashes series). I do see the problem with the Percy Jackson series, though. Could you turn the box set to face out a different side of the box? (Sorry, I don't know what the other sides look like). I've got my Mistborn trilogy box set which I turned sideways to face out one of the images on the side.

    • @ReadByAndy

      @@ReadByAndy I know it to be tedious, but I reverse the order of the books within the boxed sets, but with the cohesive spine art of Percy Jackson, that's not really possible 😒... If you're not stacking anything on top of it, I would recommend keeping it vertical (space saving) but turning it so its right side is facing outwards (the side with the Titans Curse cover) I find that to be the most appealing, idk, just a suggestion.

    I always put books in chronological order if they are horizontal like that; so exactly what you did with An Ember in the Ashes series. I can't stand when people put the last book on the top and do it in reverse order; why would you do that?! It takes me forever to organize my books how I want to, but that's because I'm a perfectionist. :p Love the new look of the shelves! I've had to make some tough choices when it comes to my books and what I want to keep, but that doesn't stop me from bringing new ones in.
