I'm running out of space

[Hamishe22]

This is how I have to fit the books in my shelves now


Does anyone else have the same problem?

I'm very anal retentive when it comes to shelving my books. Before placing books in front of other books, I'd get rid of some furniture to make room for another shelf. Who needs a dresser and clean socks and underwear, anyways?

I used to be also very anal retentive but I am running out of space for new shelves too

Nope, no problems here! There's heaps of room left on my dinner table ?

This was how I shelved my books when I still had paper books and shelves.

Never ask an Iranian if they're going broke if you're not ready to listen to a five hour lament about inflation, recession, and currency devaluation ?

I couldn't help but notice the copy of Island by Alistair MacLeod on your table. It's a shame that such a master storyteller wrote so little during his lifetime. Only sixteen short stories and one novel for a man who lived to his mid-seventies. By the way, MacLeod's "The Vastness of the Dark" is one of my all-time favorite short stories. It took me back to my childhood in a way no other short story, or even novel, ever has.

I picked it up because I've been reading heaps of Alice Munro recently and thought it might be healthy and interesting to see what other Canadian writers (not named Margaret Atwood) have to say. Thanks for the tip on a starting point!
