What's on your bookshelves?

This is a look at the books on the bookshelves throughout my house with a discussion of some of my favourites. I had to cut out two parts: the art books in the master bedroom and the small bookshelf in the living room, because they pushed the video over ten minutes. I apologize for the poor lighting in a couple of the segments. Please let me know about your own books.

great collection!

[RoulinBrooks]

@DixiePrepper Thanks! It's weird, though, to think that all of my books (and then some) could fit onto one Kindle.

Having a travel book for Sri Lanka, but no speak of how awesome Arthur C. Clarke was.

i am disappoint.

[RoulinBrooks]

@Drmofothegreat Oh, I was a big fan of Arthur C. Clarke in my youth. They weren't all gems, Arthur C. Clarke's works, though. 3001, for example, was a real stinker. Still, the man was amazing. I still think about Rendezvous with Rama now and then.

Wow I really love your tour! And i adore your "travelling-shelf"! I think that is a really good idea, even though i haven't been around that much ;) I'm from germany and i've never visited a country thats not in europe. (greek, denmark, austria, spain ect ) But I hope that will change soon (i'm 23 so... i think i will make it till i'm old ;-)))

*thumps up* for the tour and of course the "travelling-shelf" :D

Greetings! :)

@Merraluuna Thanks for the comment! I didn't start traveling until I was about 23 or so. You'll have a lot of travel adventures in your future no doubt. You should start your own traveling bookshelf!

[VCAndrewsForever]

I have ALOT of VCAndrews books on my book shelf! Check out my channel to see the others!

I also loved your book shelfs! It's good to see a man taking pride in his books like I do. Now i'm going to get a fire extinguisher to put on it to protect my precious books! :)

@RoulinBrooks

Rendezvous with Rama was the first novel of his i read, i loved it still i don't like its sequels. hoping i can buy it next week when my library has it's used book sale. $1-2(sc and hc) are their normal sale prices(they have a shelf of books for sale usually). i just hope they are not closing down as it's only a 5-15 min walk depending on my knee and hip, and my state just voted in some extremist 'conservatives' that are against public libraries. :(

@Horrorfan309
