 Hello everyone, fancy seeing you here. That's funny, tell another one! So I have just moved back home, back from my uni flat and I have got boxes upon boxes of books. So basically I just thought we'd do a fun video of you accompanying me getting my bookshelves back in any kind of order because they are a bit of a mess. Yeah lots of stuff just not in the right full place and because I am going to have to put quite a lot of books back in my bookshelves, like any books that I have read in the last five months need to be put on the bookshelves. We're going to have to do a lot of moving about because I organise by genre so yeah let's do it. Most of these boxes are unread books so we're going to tackle them last. The first thing that we need to tackle is basically these books. They are the books that I have read so we need to get them back on shelves. There's also like loads of books not in the right place because my family bored them while I've been away and obviously they don't know where things go. So let me, oh my god what should I do? Let me take you around the bookshelves as they are right now. We'll chat about that and then we'll sort these books out. And the vast majority of these books won't take us that long to sort out because they are just going to go back on my book cart. But the bookshelves are definitely going to require some rigidity. Up here, this bit here is contemporaries. So I'm debating moving the contemporaries over to the other bookshelf and making this whole top shelf mystery thriller. I think that might be the first thing that I do. These are just, I told you there's a wayward books lying around that people have just borrowed. Then this is mystery thriller. Then this shelf is my favorite hardback shelf. I do want to move the strange case of the alchemist order into one of these facing out positions. I think I'm going to take off the night circus, although I do love that cover. So on this shelf we have got contemporaries. At contemporaries? We've got, what's that? I don't know. There's something that says in that tone of voice. I was thinking. I remembered what it is and it's back rolls. And we've got graphic novels here which I want to keep there even though the rest of this shelf is going to be like fantasy and murder mysteries and like dark and horror and darker stuff. I do like having this little bit of lightness because I think the other shelf is more like light hearted books. I do like having this here and I like how this looks when I'm filming to have these here because they're nice and colorful. And then fantasy starts here and here. This shelf, apart from Wilder Girls, is all kind of books that I am doing. I'm not very good at unhauling. I am going to have to do that at some point. But these are all books that I'm not bothered about. They're mostly books I read when I was like 13, so like eight years ago. But they're books I don't want to unhaul yet, which I probably will unhaul soon. But for now, we're going to start doubling up fantasy in front of this. So we're just going to like cover all these books up and have it double stacked basically. Let's take you over to the other book shelf. This top shelf is nonfiction. So that's probably going to stay as it is. Hang on, that was in the wrong place. Let's put you here. And then on this shelf, we've got romance, then kind of like literary fiction, then a classic, and then magical realism and fabulism. Hardback thrillers because they don't fit on that top shelf, which is fine. I'm happy with like some being over here. And then we've got sci-fi. This is in the wrong place. Let's go get all of my red books out and put them into their genres and kind of put them roughly where they need to go. Magical realism, fabulism, surrealism was on that shelf. There's not room for over there. And I want it to be higher up. And it sounds stupid. Is that true? It's very true. But I like genres I like to be like high up on the shelves because that's what you see more. So I think I'm going to add that to opposite contemporary and we'll just make fantasy go a little bit lower basically. But first things first, we're going to change and do up the thriller mystery shelf. What I think I want to do, well this fit, I actually want to do like a lying down stack. Please say you'll fit. Oh yeah, okay. This is what we're going to do. My favorite genre. There's not many I want to unhaul. The only change I want to make to this shelf is taking the night circus off in the strange case of the Alchemist's daughter. I think, yeah. But I also think I'm going to take middle game off of here, put the night circus there. I love the night circus cover of the edition I have. But I feel like if I was to put it face out on a lower shelf, it would just be wasting room. I need to kind of maximize room until I get another bookshelf really, but I don't really know when that's going to happen. So for now, let's just have that like that. Right, this shelf's having a bit of a mare. Excuse me, excuse me. Excuse me. I didn't put this on the mystery shelf. We've got room for like a thin paper bag. A friend has come to join us. Say hello, Lux. Lux, what's this? Wow, he's sniffing the microphone. That's nice. Look at my books, Lux. What do you think? Well, let's add in Heart Stopper in its rightful place. Angel's saying, oh my God, she's so cute. Then I want to add in all of my like surrealism, low fantasy. I actually want it to go here now. And then let's have a think about what fantasy I want on this shelf with this stuff, which is good. And this shelf is more, you know, we've still got sci-fi, like historical fiction here with a bit of room. And then down thought like literary general fiction here, we've got like horror-ish stuff here. And then my poetry stuff here. Okay, so that is my bookshelves pretty much reorganized. Everything put into its rightful place. I'm really happy with how they look actually. Some of the shelves in particular I'm really happy with. So now the big task really is to sort out all of my unread books. Now, most of them I just can go on my book cart, but what I actually want to do is separate out the ones that I have dedicated reading vlogs planned for, which is quite a lot. I have probably my videos planned up until like September. So there's a lot of books that I have allocated to dedicated reading vlogs. And so what I want to do is separate those out and kind of group them together just so I can visualize that and see which ones I have already dedicated videos to. So that's gonna be a slow process. I'm gonna go get a drink and then we'll start it. I need a drink. I just have to shove the books that I'm fitting here somewhere. I'm gonna put 2021 new releases that I really want to read at the front and then just organize it kind of randomly from there. Reorganized. I am so happy to be back with all of my books in one place. I did not manage. I didn't manage to fit all of my unread books onto this cart and we're running out of them on the bookshelf so it's not good. It's not looking good. I think in a couple months I'm gonna reorganize my room so I have less room for other things but more room for bookshelves. I think I'm gonna like have them in the corner where my bed currently is. I'm not sure. But in a couple months time we'll tackle that. But I am happy with all of my 2021 releases on this top shelf there. Really what I need to start prioritizing because I have not read a lot of them and I was so excited for so many of them so I need to prioritize them but I'm also happy with my other shelves and the way they're looking. I think they all look really really cute. So yeah let me know how you organize your bookshelves down in the comments. I would love to know. Maybe I'll get a bit of inspiration for mine. And yeah thank you so much for watching this video. I will see you very very soon in another one. Bye!
