how do you like to organize your bookshelf ?

[Morgan]

I feel like a lot of readers go back and forth! I currently have mine by series and if they are standalones I group books by the same author together! But I just got a new bookshelf so im thinking about color coding it!

[kay 𖤓]

i organize by genre and then within the genres i put them in order of my favorite to least favorite but i keep the series together! :)

[Kaylee]

I user to have it by author then by color. However now I have it by genre and there's a specific spot for my dnfs

[chey🦇]

I’m a huge sjm fan and I have all her series in multiple formats so I keep them all together and it’s my favorite thing ever. My personal preference is black books w gold lettering so I keep those together and then by height I organize them. For colorful books, I keep series together and try to make a rainbow!

i used to do by author or even publisher but now i just do it color

[Sasha]

Yes, very much. I do the same by genre like classics, fantasy, romances. Arranging and Rearranging my bookshelf is so much fun.

[bookswarm]

i organise them by colour, just like rainbow!

[Shannon Paige]

I put series and same authors together, other books kinda just go where I have space 😭

[anni ౨ৎ]

randomly 😭

[oli]

i have book stacks but even then i don’t even organize them ahaha!

[evinha .]

mine are organised by the colour of the spine! my bookshelf has a rainbow order basically 😭

[brenda]

mine is organized by genre, expect for my cassandra clare books (the shadowhunters chronicles), they have a shelf just for them.

[olivia]

genre and author, as much as I love the aesthetic of color coding I couldn't handle books in the same series being separated

[Amber]

Genre but I have to have the authors together

[Eva ಇ]

I put books by the same author together, but in fact there is not really a specific organization beside that... I just put the book where I have space coz i have a small shelf

[sasha]

mines is organized by the order i read them tbh, like from oldest to new ones

[emilia]

By genre and inside each genre I organize by height.

Any other way doesn't work for me - tried by color, alphabetically, read/unread split and it always leads to me rearranging my books again like a day later.

[judith]

by colours but i guess i'll start organizing it by genre, i'm just tired of the rainbow colours :/

[Bookish Ninjaaaaaa!]

Book size. So I have more room to fill with oddities.

[Clem (Taylor's version)♡➷]

alphabetically :)

[Amelia :)]

I arrange mine in authors and then I run out of room so just stack piles of books

[judith]

by genres and authors

[alayla !]

it changes every other day (not an exaggeration) but rn i have them color coded until i get the complete sets of a few more series

[Amelie]

I just reorganized it to be by color and then within that by height. I just love how aesthetic that looks

[Scarlett (Taylor’s version)]

Alphabetical order of the authors last name, then publication date

[Zeyno (hiatus)]

genre
