New year, new shelves ✨🙌🏾 | building my dream library 🔨 bookshelf organization 💕bookshelf tour 📚

[@nicoleatheart82]

"I'm an adult with adult money." Decorating our spaces the way we want truly heals our inner child. Looking at the bookshelves eases my anxiety. I don't have a system per se. One bookshelf has all hardback books, and the other has all paperbacks. I also have them by height, from tallest to shortest. I am so happy for you. It is such a happy feeling to wake up to something that is just for you. Your space looks comfortable, enjoy it every day.💕

[@ReadingOverReality]

Yessss, it’s feels so good having my space looking cute. Even “decorating” my bed making it cute. I’ve been making my bed everyday so that it can be cute with my shelves! & I also do mine by height I hate to see shelves that’s be like short big short short big big big short big lol I just try to keep series together & then mostly aesthetics. & thank you 😊 you too 💕

[@lisamays5282]

Girl you did that! You built and decorated that thing to fit your vibe all by yourself! Kudos to you! It looks amazing! Now I need to spruce up my shelves to make my books stand out!

[@ReadingOverReality]

Thank you so much. I definitely recommend you do. I loveeeeee being in my room now. My kid be so mad at me because he just wants me to come be around him & I just be wanting to be in my room. 😂😂😂

[@Sar1386]

You did a great job with your bookshelves. Glad you’re getting to enjoy things you wanted as a child.

[@lanessiacarrington8283]

The shelves look so good! I love the color and maybe getting a neutral bed spread with pink in it or just pink sheets and pillowcase will suffice until you get the new bed.

[@ReadingOverReality]

Ima just have to ignore it for now because I love my current bed set up & the shelves. It’s the headboard that’s bothering me. It’s okay though cause honestly with all the books & decor on it & it being all put together it doesn’t look as bad to me.

[@lanessiacarrington8283]

@ReadingOverReality The books do bring it together better than the naked shelves. 🥰

[@ReadingOverReality]

I love it❤ your room is super cute. Where did you get the bookcases?

[@ReadingOverReality]

Thank you & they’re the Billy bookshelves from Ikea

[@MadisonalyseRNR]

I know you said who needs a man but honestly i have hated being Barbra the builder. lol it be taken too much out of me! but now you got me excited to record my rotating bookshelf that is coming. it will be my last build. but your set up looks so cute !!!

[@ReadingOverReality]

Girlllllllllllll I feel you. Them bookshelves were sitting in my living room for like a month cause I really just didn’t wanna put them together I had to force myself to finally do it as apart of my new year house reset 😂😂😂 cause I was gonna let them sit a lil longer. I wish I could call a man to just come do it for me sometimes 😂 but them mfs don’t be knowing how to do it themselves tbh 😂 & thank you 🫶🏾💕

[@MadisonalyseRNR]

@ no fr men don’t be men-ing enough for me but love to say what we should be doing 😂 can’t even do the basics

[@ReadingOverReality]

@ literally don’t even know how to work a grill nowadays. & will sit up there & watch you build the shelf pleaseeeeee 😂

[@TriceyReads]

Love your book nook. You inspired me to think about what I can do in my room. 😊 What did you think of the Crescent City series? I was drawn in by the 1st book. 2nd book was ok until the twist at the end. 3rd book highly disappointed.

[@ReadingOverReality]

Thank you, & you said it best! I feel the exact same way about the crescent city series. She did us dirty with HOFAS. To end the 2nd book how she did then give us THAT is crazyyyy! Definitely my least favorite of her series. I didn’t care about the characters that much either. I have a reading vlog finishing the 2nd book & reading the 3rd book with my thoughts as I’m reading it, if you want to check it out it was closer to the beginning of the year. Have you read any of her other series?
