Play With Horizontal Stacking
jennareadsbooks
Not all books need to be stacked vertically.
We love this corner shelf fromjennareadsbooksthat features an extensive collection of books, some sitting vertically and others horizontally.
Add trinkets to the top of the stacks for even more texture.

One of the most common ways to organize an extensive book collection is alphabetically by author’s last name.
This makes it easy to find exactly what you want to read, quickly.

Group mystery novels with other mystery novels, nonfiction with nonfiction, and so on.
