7 Ways to Organize Your Bookshelves

[@ghostcrystal7930]

Although it looks really cool and satisfying I could never rainbow my bookshelves because most of my books are parts of series' and the idea of splitting them up physically hurts me 😂

[@courtneymoss2475]

Aquamarine yes!! Same!!! Like Hunger Games series: hunger games (black book), catching fire (red book), and mocking jay (blue book)

[@novasaurusrexx]

I set my series aside (unless they are all the same color) and put them on separate shelves just so I can have the rainbow! I cannot split them up or I go insane haha!

[@emilydubs147]

This was my favorite bookshelf organization video I've ever seen. Sometimes they're boring, but since you had an experiment and voice-over dedicated to talking about that experiment, it was fascinating. Thank you. I organize by read/unread and then by author's last name, so that I can have all of my guilt staring me directly in the face, alphabetically. I like the aesthetic of rainbow bookshelves, but it would drive me absolutely insane to have them, because I wouldn't be able to find anything and authors/series wouldn't be together.

[@TheEllaDarling]

Read and unread I feel is the most practical, while the stylized is pretty, it would be so difficult to find a specific book. Color-coordinated is also really pleasing to the eye, but again, less practical than having them sorted by genre. I kind of go with a blend of read/unread and genre, but it's not THAT specific.

[@BookishRaider]

Alphabetically, that's how I do it. Maybe you can have all of the read and unread books alphabetically.

[@laurelrhinehardt5160]

I definitely organize by genre, and then rating. I can’t keep nearly as many paper books, because space, but I have two columns on my bookshelf, and then a second, smaller shelf on the side. On one side of the tall shelf, I have all my classics, with my absolute favorites at eye-level and descending interest from there. On the other side, I have my recently written/Non-Classics organized the same way. My shorter bookshelf has old textbooks I still refer to, notebooks which are filled, archived, or blank, and any nonfiction/books on writing as a craft. It works really well for me, because I’m usually going to the same shelf to find my TBRs or favorites, and since classics are usually bound differently than more modern works, it’s aesthetically pleasing, too :)

The Aesthetic I hate the most is flipped books on a shelf. It makes *zero* sense to me... But if you like it, you like it! It's your shelf, do what makes you happy! Thanks for running through these different organizations, because it really helped me sort out what I might like without having to shelf and unshelf my own books, so kudos for taking one for the team hahaha! I think I will stick to organizing mine by series, it's the standalone I have no clue!

[@katietatey]

OMG I LOVE this video! I have about the same # of books as you and have been trying various ways to organize them. I think you're always going to be compromising aesthetics somewhat for functionality, or compromising functionality somewhat for aesthetics. The stylized is definitely my favorite for aesthetics. As much as I love a wall of books, I think the aesthetic is better if there are also some knicknacks and some blank space. Otherwise even with organization by color or size, the eye has less of a place to rest. The color scheme you chose for the stylized is very pleasing, also. I could not deal with the books turned around backwards, personally. I think you could also consider some scheme (especially if you have few unread books) where you put unread books facing backward and then it's a treat to turn them around as they are read. But that would work better for someone with mostly read books, I think. I like the look of rainbow shelves but I didn't like yours when organized by rainbow because there were too many black and white books? I think for color-organization I might not have had each horizontal row be rainbow, but instead kept all of each color of books together, and maybe done some type of color blocking rather than a rainbow. I have a couple of shelves that are rainbow (my scuba diving books and my quilting books are sub-organized with some rainbow arrangements) and I like that better than every single book being in a rainbow. The by height organization was very pleasing, and I liked the alphabetical with the letters. I used to have my nonfiction (I have a lot of topical books like quilting, scuba, martial arts, cooking, gardening, home repair, etc) organized by topic and my fiction organized alphabetically. I don't think mixing in my cookbooks and stuff alphabetically would work since I usually wouldn't know the authors' names. Lately I moved to contemporary vs classics, and then subdivided some classics into Penguin classics together, Russian lit together, Barnes and Noble classics together... I'm still playing around and you inspired me to be more energetic in moving things around. :)

My partner's and my system is a little complicated. On the main bookshelves (actually my profile picture) the top two shelves are books we've either both read or only one of us will realistically read, one rainbow-ed, and the other with larger books, box sets, etc. On the next shelf down we've each got an individual collection of books we're particularly excited about, as well as all of the ones about writing. Below that is the rest of the TBR section, rainbow-ed. Our rainbows go down to the detail of gradation of color, which is tedious, but preeeeeeetty. Children's books and language books are on a different shelf entirely. (And then there's the other area of the apartment where I corral all of the library books that I read instead of the nicely organized ones I actually own.)
