OrangeMooseReads @LeahBergen I do too. It also gives me anxiety lol What am I going to put on it? Am I going to organize by genre, author, subject ...? And then the “if I put these books here will people think I like that author more than this one or that I like this book more than that one?” Book nerd problems. 4y

LeahBergen Exactly!! 😂😂 4y

Nute This space is already beautiful! I like the color of the wood. 4y

I need new bookshelves 😟 mine are falling apart and cheapies. Anyone have any suggestions on the best bookshelves that hold alot of books efficiently . I'm running out of space for my books 🙃 help 😂

#cantstopwontstop 📚😂

mklong I‘m a big fan of my Billy bookshelves from Ikea. They are pretty inexpensive and come in several coordinating sizes to fit your space. 6y

Lcsmcat I agree with @mklong . We have them all over our house and you can make them look like built-ins if you like. 6y

MStew I think it's time I make a trip there thanks @Lcsmcat and @mklong 6y

squirrelbrain I also agree with @mklong and @Lcsmcat - Billy‘s the way to go! 6y

Susanita Yes to IKEA even though I always get lost there. 6y

Cailey_Mac Definitely the Billy bookcases from Ikea! They‘re a bit sturdier than ones from Walmart; plus they‘re 10 times easier to put together! 6y

Reagan I just have to say, we have many of the same books, you obviously have great taste 😂 and yes, the Billy from IKEA is the answer. 6y

tournevis Just to add to the concensus, Billy. 6y

rretzler Definitely, the Billy. We have one or two in almost every room in our house. Plus one unassembled in the garage and a couple in the basement! 6y

PickwickPlockPlock Yes to Billy, we have them too 6y

Herschelian Billy, Billy, Billy! 6y

TorieStorieS We are a Billy household too- have at least one in 50% of the rooms in our home! 6y

MStew @Cailey_Mac will they fit more books than my wally and target shelves 😂 6y

Cailey_Mac @meghan2714 mine did! I can fit about 25-30 books on each shelf, some I have more on depending on how I have them stacked 6y

RavenLovelyReads My “home library” is ALL Billy from Ikea 🤓They were inexpensive and look pretty good. Plus, they have a top shelf you can get separately for a floor to ceiling look 👀 which really just means you can add more books 📚 (edited) 6y

MStew @Cailey_Mac do you have to nail them to wall? And did u get the 6 shelf billy or 7 . I almost have to double stack my books I jw if these are strong lol 6y

Cailey_Mac @meghan2714 nope I didn‘t nail or fix mine to the wall; I would only do that if you live somewhere with frequent earthquakes or small children, but I have none of those things to worry about😅 I got the ones that look like a “double” bookcase, but they are not attached to each other and there are 5 shelves on each of them, but you can adjust where you want the shelves ☺️ 6y
