My life has started to revolve around books, i have just started spending 25 percent of my salary every month on books, im watching booktube everyday and listening to audiobooks and reading books and if im not reading im buying or searching - its starting to be a problem, but a problem i can cope with
When you moved LotR to the shelf with HP and GoT I said "YES!" out loud haha!! It's like sports for book nerds. I can't explain why I loved watching this so much but ughhh I wish it was longer 😆 so satisfying.
I lost my cousin ten days back to Covid19. He was 38 and I was very close to him so it has been a harrowing loss. This video is almost meditative and has helped calm me down so much. Thank you. ❤️ Please know you have touched my life. Love from India.
I have been looking forward to this video!! So exciting! Favorite book tube channel for sure thank you so much for your incredible videos! I cant wait to watch this one when I get home ❤️
I've been putting off a bookshelf organization session for AGES, but watching your video has motivated me to just jump into it!!! What would we ever do without you Ciara???😂💛📚
I`m from Brazil and this Penguin Classics Deluxe editions are soo rare to find 😭 I only read Emma, Sense and sensibility and Frankenstein in this editions and they are incredible, with the annotations and everything
Hi Ciara. Thought I'd just leave you a message to say how much I enjoyed your video. There is really something aesthetically pleasing about shelves full to the brim with books 📚 I love the classics, in particular 😉
Love seeing how other people categorise books, as soon as you said Madeline Miller I was thinking 'literary fiction!' but it's funny because I know that someone else would shuffle my shelves around if they could haha. Very satisfying video, makes me look forward to the day when I can organise my perfect shelves x
i love literally every video you post. the reading vlogs, the reading wrap ups, what I eat in a day, bookshelf organizations, TBR... EVERYTHING. haha ok i'm okay, not obsessed at all :'D
In the public library where I work historical fiction based on real events is shelved in ‘historical fiction’ whereas historical fiction based on non events is ‘fantasy’ - that may help you decide where they go, though I accept it’s not an exact science and it’s entirely up to you. I organise books all day in work, so at home....not so much. Though I could happy fiddle with books for the next 20 years I don’t like to keep books I have read, unless absolute favourites. My shelves would be 95% ‘to be read’ 5% read/favourites. But I do really love looking at other peoples collections.
Hahah that makes sense! It’s definitely a struggle for certain books that just don’t feel like they absolutely belong in one section! But that just means more fun with organising!
And more challenges in work! Lol. Just wondering. - all the books on yours shelves - are they a mixture of read and to be read or have you read them all? It is a great collection - really enjoying this video and wishing you and Jay lots of happy memories made in your new home, and with your new bookshelves : )
I feel so contented and excited for the books to be organised - especially as you have more space!!! Enjoy sitting and staring at your books and being able to find the one you want instantly rather than playing book jenga!
The shelves look beautiful! Though, I think that The Book Thief can hardly be considered a fantasy book--I'd put it in the darker reads section if I were you, or maybe historical fiction
My world is books as well. I would love to hang out with you. I love your videos. Your personality is amazing. Thanks for helping me ignore this stupid strep throat. At 57 I thought those days were over but grandkids and here is am. So painful.
I always organize my books by author only as that’s the only way I’d be able to find them lol. I have one bookcase of those read and the other of those not read. Very simple but it is what works for me
I am loving the level of detail on your thought processs as to where to place books, I have the same dilemma! Absolutely you need to have a Jane Austen shelf 😍📚
I might have a stack or shelf of just your TBR books, so you know exactly where to look for a book you haven't read yet. Maybe your memory is better than mine do you wouldn't use this method, but it is an idea!
This looks so satisfying and beautiful 🤩 However... you packed 4 boxes of books and almost filled these shelves. I'll be moving in autumn to my own first home and from childhood to university years, I have aquired 12!!! boxes of books, that I WANT to keep. I'm in soo much trouble..😲😲 I cant imagine how many bookshelves that would fill
@@ciarascorner yeah ... I was on the minimalistic side of things...sort of..., looking for happiness within me and it made me really sad : D it's definitely high time for a good book and a big mug. :) have a nice Sunday ( and anyone who reads this, too)
Oh no! I’m sorry to hear that! I definitely agree with the principal of minimalism but I also think having things isn’t bad if they make you happy! So if a nice mug and a great book brings you joy, enjoy them!💕
This is so relaxing 🧘♀️ Thank you for bringing us along, Ciara. This also helps me categorize mine. Was following along by shelving my Goodreads 📚 which would be an awesome way when the actual organization comes. Also, can't wait for IKEA to come in our country. PS. Was playing Dora helping you find which shelf you placed the books lol
Watching your video I realise I categorised Time Travellers Wife with my contemporary without batting an eyelid - obviously it does have a magical realisim element to it, but I agree feels more contemporary than anything.
I have 2 Billy bookcases and really need more space! Loving your new set up 😍 Are you going to secure yours to the wall? I saw one wobble forward at one point 😅
I haven't watched this until the end, and this is really just what I do, but I usually put sci-fi and dystopian together. Don't really know if you have a sci-fi section tho.
Such a fun video! Your videos are always so incredible! ❤️ I hope everyone seeing this comment is doing well despite all of the difficult circumstances in the world right now. I love that you quickly plugged Mine by Emily Merrill. A sign of a great friend.
I'd recommend switching the darker romance shelf with the stephen king shelf, so all of the romances are in a vertical line, and the stephen king is right below fantasy and then darker reads and dystopian right below that.
That looked like a lot of work lol. Why did you decide to go by genre and not by author? I get to do all that once I get around to buying book shelves. I just have all of my books in three boxes in my closet post move haha. Are you able to have an entire room for a home library? I plan on just putting my books in groups by series and author. I think I’m going to ‘read through the boxes’ so only my keep books will end up on the shelves and the non keepers will find new homes. My experience won’t be nearly as satisfying lol. Did Jay decide to get rid of his Westerns except that one?
I have a question with no means to be rude, what is a "dark academia book" or what makes a book fall into the "dark academia" genre, like what kind of toppics have or is about the story or atmosphre or the time they were made? Again not be rude I'm really curious
Honestly, I didn’t really know what it was until last year ahaha! But essentially, dark academia novels are generally set in a college/university/academic setting and surround a dark subject like a murder! Although the genre isn’t super exclusive and is more about the general vibe... The Picture of Dorian Gray and Frankenstein would both fit into the genre although they’re not exclusively in an academic setting - hope that helps!
i'm pretty late but i just wanted to say that you are absolutely gorgeous! you look like the perfect person to play as a female lead role in a jane austen book.
My life has started to revolve around books, i have just started spending 25 percent of my salary every month on books, im watching booktube everyday and listening to audiobooks and reading books and if im not reading im buying or searching - its starting to be a problem, but a problem i can cope with
Oh gosh ahahah, just think... there’s worse things you could spend money on!
@@ciarascorner there is indeed worse things to spend money on :)
Apart from unhauls, bookshelf organizations are my favourite 📚📚📚
Yay!! I hope you enjoy!
@@ciarascorner congrats on your new home 🏠
the upgrade from the 3 thick black shelves to these gorgeous white once 😍✨
Omg right?! It’s the ultimate shelf glow up!
When you moved LotR to the shelf with HP and GoT I said "YES!" out loud haha!! It's like sports for book nerds. I can't explain why I loved watching this so much but ughhh I wish it was longer 😆 so satisfying.
Omg haven't even watched yet but just commenting to say this EXACTLY what I need today lol. Excited to watch!
Aww yay - I hope you enjoy!!
I really enjoyed this format. It's refreshing to see you go through each book instead of doing the organization montage book tubers usually do
You’re right. The copy of Emma is beautiful ✨
So beautiful!
I’m very impressed how fast you did this.
Hahah thank you!
Sounds like you could use a magical realism shelf, for Starless Sea, Time Traveler’s Wife, etc.
YES! You’re so right!
I lost my cousin ten days back to Covid19. He was 38 and I was very close to him so it has been a harrowing loss. This video is almost meditative and has helped calm me down so much. Thank you. ❤️ Please know you have touched my life. Love from India.

Hahah happy to help😂😂
Wow 🤩 you did good, I reckon that cup of tea kept you going. Look forward to seeing your new reading 📖 spot.
Hahah the cuppa was absolutely essential!
This was exactly what I needed for this week- such a soothing and pretty video- thank you!
Thank you - so glad you enjoyed!

This makes me so happy - I appreciate you!!💕☺️
I experienced both your stress and joy throughout the whole process❤️
I love your videos! Ive been so excited for this video since your spring clean😁🥰
Am I the only one who wants to reorganise their shelf after seeing this?
Hahah; I say, do it!
No but the mess of books l would have on my floor
@@jenxv._ It's part of the charm ^^

Satisfied video length 😀
Hahaha😅😂
This was a super good companion for chore day! So happy and homey and motivating.
i love these type of videos! your eclectic selection of books is a dream of mine to have one day 🤩
aww thank you - I love my collection!
I really enjoyed this video and there are even more books on my wishlist after watching this 😅😍
Hahah oops💕
your coffee cup is adorable at the beginning!!
Aww thank you!
I think my shelves and books need more of my attention this weekend ☺ I'm inspired by you! 😍
Really enjoyed seeing this kiara. Loved the aesthetic look 🤗
ur jumper is the cutest!!
Thank you!!
I found your account the other day and loving your videos!!!
Aw thank you!
my tbr just became 10 times longer after watching this video
Hahahah sorry about that😂
The shelves look beautiful! Though, I think that The Book Thief can hardly be considered a fantasy book--I'd put it in the darker reads section if I were you, or maybe historical fiction
Thanks - as I haven’t read it yet I was just guessing!
I’ve been waiting for this video and it didn’t disappoint☺️
Yaaay - glad you enjoyed!☺️
I’d probably put Celeste Ng’s book in contemporary! They really aren’t that dark and just about family drama and relations. Very good books!
Maybe with the dark contemporaries! I’d add Cherry to that list too
Thank you! Will shift them around!
My world is books as well. I would love to hang out with you. I love your videos. Your personality is amazing. Thanks for helping me ignore this stupid strep throat. At 57 I thought those days were over but grandkids and here is am. So painful.

You should designate a full bookshelf to classics and then fill in the remaining space with decor! Show off the extent of your cool collection!
I think I’d need a few shelves for all of the classics haha!
I am loving the level of detail on your thought processs as to where to place books, I have the same dilemma! Absolutely you need to have a Jane Austen shelf 😍📚
Ahhh such a satisfying video! Love it!!
Thank you!!
Your shelves came out lovely!
Thank you!!
I think you misplaced call me by your name, you were moving it to the romance shelf but accidentally put it in the dark reads one. Loved the video btw
I noticed this when I was editing😂🤦🏻♀️ it has been moved now!
Everything looks so nice 😊 love your sweater your wearing as well
I love book organising videos 😍 I love how you have organized it

I also start singing and dancing with my books when I reorganize them, and stare at the piles on the floor contemplating life 😂
Hahaha it’s just a natural reaction😂
I love this, I love your videos and today is my birthday :)
Happy Birthday!

Omg wow 😮 love your books 📚 shelves please stay safe love you and your amazing channel love your number one Australia fan John
Thank you!☺️
@@ciarascorner no worries 😉
So satisfying! 😍 Except please put the Harry Potter books in chronological order 🙏😂
Hahaha I do need to do that😂
Where did you get the editions you have of your Jane Austen books?! I love them so much!
Most of them are penguin i believe & I bought them all at Waterstones!
This is so relaxing 🧘♀️ Thank you for bringing us along, Ciara. This also helps me categorize mine. Was following along by shelving my Goodreads 📚 which would be an awesome way when the actual organization comes. Also, can't wait for IKEA to come in our country.

Not me thinking, how doesn't her tea get cold✋👀
It definitely did😂
Very excited to watch this later!!!
Discussion on novels,with sips of hot coffee
I'd recommend switching the darker romance shelf with the stephen king shelf, so all of the romances are in a vertical line, and the stephen king is right below fantasy and then darker reads and dystopian right below that.
Congrats on your new home!! 😊
I love your sweater!
I aspire to have shelves like this one day 🤩😂 loved the vid ✨
Ciara, loved this video! But make sure those shelves are securely attached to the wall, honey, I think I saw the one on the right dangerously tilting
loved this!! 💛
Wow! It looks amazing! Love it so, so much! Xo
Thank you!!
Where did you get your bookshelves from? ☺️ also congrats on your new home!
They’re from IKEA!
Dewey decimal classification is best standard for literature book classification
I genuinely have no idea what this means😂
It is the library classification system for non fiction
Yes, but I mean I don’t know what it means in terms of how the books are classified in this system!😅
@@ciarascorner I think perhaps it may only be American? (I am American and am still often confused by what the system is 😂)
@@VP-tg8kd Which system is best for fiction material bro
So pretty! Do you use ereaders or buy all the books you read?
That looked like a lot of work lol. Why did you decide to go by genre and not by author? I get to do all that once I get around to buying book shelves. I just have all of my books in three boxes in my closet post move haha. Are you able to have an entire room for a home library?

Can someone tell me what the classic collection at around the 38:50 mark is?
They are the penguin deluxe classics!
I want to do reorganize my book shelf but l have so many lt would take over my room and the mess of books

Thank you!!☺️
You should buy some bookshelf decor to fill the gaps and give it some life!
Definitely planning to jazz it up as I go! This was just the first step💕
I'm like this books. I'm wish reading
You could file Zane Grey in with the 'horsiction.'
I think i can speak for everyone when i say we need a bookshelf TOUR ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good classification of literature books... It will more good when you make books tags according to authors last name & assigned number to each book
That’s definitely a good idea - especially when we get more books!
@@ciarascorner Yes. For few you can make your own classification. it is mostly used in libraries where many users exists and many books exists
You will difinitely know your each book so you dont need this classification scheme ,🤣
Oh okay ahahha!
@@ciarascorner Oh i misspelled one word.. My auto dictionary was actually off 😜
Super random but you look so similar to my cousin, whose name is pronounced the same way as yours (spelt Kiera though)
