In pursuit of the perfect #bookrainbow - I think my paperbacks got me the right range of colors finally
😊💕

In trying to choose which title to post my next #bookrainbow to, the Oz retelling seemed the most appropriate choice (though a beige book in a rainbow might be pushing it 😊) 🌈

These books actually live on a shelf together - with a black shelf above and white books below. Shelving by color feeds my inner OCD librarian in a different, happier way💕

The color photo challenges are fun but make messes of my shelves 😊

#shadesofblue #somethingforsept #septemberphotochallenge #shelvingbycolorisfun

RealLifeReading And so pretty! 8y
Carol Well you could be a nut job like me and rearrange them into a permanent rainbow and never find anything easily but feel a giddy sense of excitement every time you walk into the room 😂 Seriously I just had my first shifting moment of hell when I acquired a pink book and that shelf was too tight. Impractical! Unsustainable! I am a dork 🤓 8y
elkeOriginal @Carol Oh, don't you worry - I have more than a few shelves now organized by color. A delightful nightmare. Now I want to see your shelves! Just don't try that at work, eh? 8y

Carol @elkeo haha they would kill me at the library! I posted my shelves a week or two ago. It's only 2 because I apparently have a ton of white and black and otherwise not rainbowish books. 😂 8y
DebinHawaii Yes! The putting away part... 😱😱😱 8y
Linsy Love that vase! 8y
elkeOriginal @ABookishPixie Thanks! Me too 😊 It's on the short list of things to grab when fleeing the apocalypse...or at least in an earthquake... 8y
elkeOriginal @Carol It's fun to clump those black & white books too 😉 8y
Linsy @elkeo 😄 8y

Well, this morning's photo for #augustphotochallenge of #whitespines were all books I have read.
Silly me - I was ignoring a gold, I mean white, mine of unread whitespined books on my TBR shelves!
So, here you are - one more photo for today 😊✨

Since these are all waiting in line, feel free to nudge me what to move up my list!
Reading Amy's book now💕

@TheLondonBookworm - I agree white spines= MUCH easier than peach day!

TheLondonBookworm Haha so true, sweet stack! 8y

These are all now shelved together and started a whole shelve-by-spine-color project on my 'read these/done that' bookcases 🙂

Varshitha Wow!! 8y
ScrappyMags I LOVE Flannery O'Connor! Her work is so sweet and evil at times lol 8y
elkeOriginal @ScrappyMags That's why multiple copies of Flannery are necessary - she's THAT awesome 😊 8y

How about a color themed #bookstack? It started with me just curious if I had any orange books - and surprisingly, I did 😃

#augustphotochallenge #augustofpages #day13 #bookstacks #shelvingbycolorisfun

TheSpinecrackersBookClub THIS!! It's absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I don't think I own one orange book. 8y
elkeOriginal @TheSpinecrackersBookClub Thanks! I honestly didn't think I had any either! It's a fun exercise to look but may cause reshelving and other distracting discoveries 😉 8y
pppooraikul Impressive! 8y
