[Poll #1126657]

I've already separated out the children's books, because I found Riding Desire shelved beside some kids' books this morning when my son was looking for something to read.

Oh! OH!!!!!!

You could organize them so that if you read the first word of each title, you would read a story, kind of like Italo Calvino's 'If on a winter's night a traveller'...

Ok.. but then we need to write the story on the opposite wall.

Wait. If we're writing stories on walls... we're back to Timothy Findley... the one with Walis Simpson in WWII.

*looks at bookshelves... looks some more... PANIC*

I can't find my copy of that!!!



WHERE IS MY COPY OF FAMOUS LAST WORDS???

*flails in dismay*

So - I looked at your list again, and laughed, because I suddenly panicked - if the most people vote for the most 'normal' way to organize, will you feel compelled to do so???
What are your intentions anyway??? HUH????

I collect the Findley people because they are easier to dust than tea cups.

Relax, breathe and look in that pile over there. I am sure you will find the book somewhere.

Pfft.

Yes, I'm going to organize my books according to the majority decision, just like I do withthe rest of my life.

I'm just heading over to Facebook for a moment to change my status.

Well, that certainly explains a lot!

I'll just have to keep monitoring the results, and start lobbying for changes if need be : )

I almost fell off of my little chair when I read your status.

Have I mentioned how much I love you?

Maybe that's how you can sort the books -- based on how much you are loved by/love the folks you associate with said books...

Now, come over here, I think I missed some dust behind your...
