I had a great post, all ready to go, about how we organize the books on our shelves (exciting, I know), when I saw the Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge: A Day in My Life.

I look forward to the post about organizing your books. About 6 months ago I went a little nutty with our bookshelves. While others may not see the order, I do. Contemporary American women authors are on this shelf. British literature (Elizabethan to Victorian) is right here. Poetry and religion are upstairs. Post colonial authors from around the world are on the top shelf. And so on. It’s possibly the goofiest shelving I’ve ever done, but there is something about it that I like.
