*pops in* My bookshelf is too small. There's a big stack of books on top of it.

My dad has about a dozen five - six foot bookshelves full of books, the majority of which he has read. Some are marked with tape on the side with "Read LB 79" or something like that. 79 being yes, the year in which it was read...

[NikkoGallarado]

That is pretty cool.

[femme gauche]

Yeah, it is kind of cool. It's too bad I hardly read at all XD. I like the idea of it, but I never actually sit down to read anything.

This is my fifth or sixth book shelving unite. I have a double and single in my room full with a foot stack of books on top; the shelves in my tv stand is full with books minus a spot for my ps2, next to my stereo is a four foot pile, and on the shelves of that are full. One full case in the living room, and boxes from sales full of books.

o_o I have an addiction to books it seems.

I have so much manga... but my fiance's books are slowly taking over my bookcase

[femme gauche]

Yeah my dad does pretty much all of his book shopping at used book sales, on the day when you can get a brown bag full of them for $5. XD.

[Lioshika]

The sale I go to isn't even used. Surplus. Penguin company holds a sale once a year; I buy at least a box full each year. And the living room shelves are my mom's. . . I took over.

[femme gauche]

Nice xD. Yeah there are shelves in the living room that have more reference-type books, artist books (you know the ones with all the pictures in them), dictionaries encyclopedias etc... My mom's modern language version of the Bible xP.

My bookshelf used to be a VHS tape shelf. I gave some of my VHS tapes to a friend with a young nephew. He loves my old Godzilla movies! XD

[NikkoGallarado]

All of my books are in my room or in my living room even in my kitchen. XD

[femme gauche]

The VHS tapes are in the basement; all of the DVDs are in two drawers in the entertainment center... there are maybe... 200 or so.

[Reyoki]

I've lost count of how many tapes I have. I live in Florida, so no basement for me. It would flood.

[Lioshika]

I have a basement. My grandma filled it with all her stuff. Old teaching papers, books, and such because she MIGHT need it some day. All of it is way outdated now.

Yet she insists we keep it.

[NikkoGallarado]

I have all my VHS in boxes in my gurage.

[femme gauche]

It's a matter of security and feeling attached and whatnot of course... not really based on practical need. Ah well...

My basement is actually livable; the shelves I mentioned form a wall around the "living area" which has a futon and a t..v and an entertainment center composed of a acouple of shelves of vinyl records and a stereo on top of it.
