I have 6 bookshelves that each hold around 100 books. I would add shelves to my bedroom as well but chances are I would only ruin the wall.

My bookshelf isn't very big, but it's overflowing. We also have books in boxes that we just don't have shelving for. My dream is to one day have a room in our home called the library just filled with shelves of books!

My bookshelf is a tall armoire type deal. It has 3 shelves up top (full and overflowing with books), a place in the middle (I have pictures here), and a cabinet on the bottom with 3 shelves full of movies. I'm going to have to do some rearranging pretty soon because my books are all stacked on top of each other. So my answer to the question "how big is your bookselves" is not big enough!

I have books all over the house and one main library (shelves along one wall).

Pretty small, as most of mine are digital. I have a bookshelf that's the top part of my desk, and I just keep most of them there.

I am slowly building my library. I have one bookshelf full of books, most of them already read. I have one with my Harry Potter collection. Yes, I have a collection. I have been reading them for 15 years. My newest bookshelf has 2 empty shelves screaming to be filled. A trip to the book store is in order.
All I need is a new book and a place to read it...
