I currently have two fairly large bookshelves and they are both overflowing! Time for a new bookcase I think!

I don't have one since I only have about a hundred titles. My books are piled up on top of each other on a table, but they're neatly placed. hehe.

I have two full bookshelves, but I liked to keep a lot of travel books and display them.

I have two tall bookshelves with around a 100 book each, but I keep most of my books on my Kindle - saves a lot of space. I only put novels on my shelf that I'm really attached to.

Not big enough. They go across my wall, but I still have too many books.

That is eerily similar to my situation.

I don't have bookshelves anymore. All of my books are housed in boxes or bins in my house, packed still from when my family moved almost four years ago. I don't have access to all of them because they're buried at the bottom of my closet, sadly. I could easily fill a whole room of bookshelves but don't have the space or money.

I could probably fit about 350 books on my shelf.

My bookshelf is not big. I have only 12 books on my bookshelf. I am a budding book reader. My bookshelf will expand in the future.

I am constantly criticized for the amount of books and bookshelves that I have. I have 4 bookshelves plus 2 floating shelves above. I am lucky that my apartment is designed with a large open space that allows the bookshelves to be a functional design that makes the place look bigger. Also shows how much of a nerd that I am with the amount of books that I have.
