The Aussie Swap discussion

Okay, so I was wondering how everyone organises their bookshelf because I'm looking for a new way to organise mine. I kind of reorganise mine every two of three days :P

Right now it's orgainised according to priorities 1) Size ( I like looking at neat rows, although it also means I have to seperate series because they're different sizes like Fallen by Lauren Kate) 2) Colour 3) ARCs, paperback or hardcover...

How do you organise yours?

I have a shelf for review copies/ARCs that are in order by month and date.

I did have them alphabetised by author but now until I move and have a wall length dream shelf of mine, they’re just stacked and put anywhere as you can see in my latest videos.

Mine are in stacks (or piles, whatever you want to call them). They're generally in piles according to size, although I *mostly* try and keep series together. At this point for me, it's a space issue and they go wherever they fit really.
There's two piles of review books on the floor too... They don't fit anywhere else.

I organise my books on my bookshelf generally into series groupings, with my favourite series getting prime bookshelf position.

My reading pile is actually quite organised, it's sorted by height so it looks at least somewhat organised. Then a few arcs/faves are just placed randomly on my shelves and same goes for the books i'm planning on swapping.

I also have a few books set aside that i'm planning on reading asap.

Mine used to be so organised, but there's simply no space anymore! So basically my books are just strewn every which way. However I keep all my review copies, books I've bought, hardcovers, etc in separate areas. Size doesn't bother me too much. All of you would probably have mini heart-attacks! :P

I'm think of organising mine like Braiden so all the review copies are together and in order of months but the size really, REALLY bugs me and if I do it like that the books aren't colour co-ordinated like the rainbow :/ So hard...

When I say mine are done by size, it's because otherwise it's just not practical. Tall books need to be stacked with tall books to make the most of space. :)
My hardcovers are all together too Cass, they just look weird anywhere else!

I keep my hardcover together as well but The Girl in Steel Corset is this short chubby HC so it looks so weird... I got two bookshelves instead of one now so space is not so much of a issue just that no matter how I organise it is looks so all over the place :/

Hi everyone, I organise my bookshelf alphabetically by author then in their series.

Mine are just in the space I can fit them in my book cupboard. I then have a shelf in my bedside table which I use as a "to review" shelf, the books on my desk are uni related or borrowed from friends and the books ON my bedside table are the started books

Oh I soo hate when series are released in different sizes. I too like a series to be in the same size and it frustrates me so much when i have one or two books one size and then the release the third book in a large size pfft

Other that my bookshelf is mainly organised in genres but I am running out of space and lately have had to pile books on shelves wherever they fit. I have to share one of my bookshelves with my boyfriend and he likes his in alphabetical order (by authors) as well as size order which is a little ridiculous i think!

Mine are usually organised by genre too. Then I start from biggest to smallest, but like you guys said, its frustrating when they release the series in different sizes!
