Shelf Respect: A Book Lovers'' Guide to Curating Book Shelves at Home

There''s no such thing as too many books, simply not enough places to put them

Decluttering is all the rage, but what do you do when your preferred interior decor is miles of overstuffed bookshelves? If you can''t bring yourself to clear your collection, SHELF RESPECT will validate your life choices.

Do you alphabetise your books or organise by genre... or (heaven forbid) colour? Have you merged your collection with your other half''s? (And do you write your name inside the cover, just in case?) Do you keep all the books you''ve read, or only the most cherished? Is there such a thing as too many books? (No.)

Bound to provoke (good-natured) debate between Bibliophiles, SHELF RESPECT is a charmingly illustrated book in defence of towering TBR piles and overflowing shelves... no matter how you choose to organise them.
