Da Books again
Nov. 9th, 2003 11:13 pmI have now reshelved them all. The corridor is notably narrower, and the book-box in the front hall has overflowed. The reason the corridor is narrower is that I decided to move one of the small bookcases from the study to the hallway, because it was so stuck behind where the computer was, that it wasn't all that comfy to look at the books in it. Maybe it's no more comfy now, but it's a change anyway.
Now all the fiction is together, which is a good thing -- I mean, I discovered that I had two copies of "The Lives of Christopher Chant" because one of them was with the paperbacks and the other one was with the hardbacks. Now all the paperbacks and hardbacks are together, and if the hardback doesn't fit on the shelf then I've put it sideways. Not that aesthetic, but tough. It is nice to have all of a series in one spot.

Maybe I will read one of the books I haven't read in a really really long time, like a Tarzan book or maybe one of the Limberlost books by Gene Stratton-Porter.
