I love the way you did this bookshelf tour! I struggle with watching the bookshelf tours where people just name every book that they own.

Yes I agree! This is the perfect bookshelf tour! It is so relaxing to look at your beautiful bookshelves and listen to your explanations about your organization and your highlights. Also LOVE Liam´s shelves! Love you Lala (as a friend)

Ok, so when you were live on Instagram and asked what we thought of bookshelf tours I said I never finish them bc I start getting bored and zoning out but ohhhh no, not with Lala’s tour! I love that you talked through it instead of literally just telling us titles. The magic of Lala strikes again!

I liked this book shelf tour. I think it’s exhausting for both the viewer and youtuber when each book is pulled out and named.

I hate that format of bookshelf tour. It gets boring to me. It feels more personal and relaxing when its filmed like this. Like an old friend showing me their books.

Since the goodreads search engine thing is so messed up, you should do a reading vlog where you type in the first word of your favorite books and read the first recommendation in the search engine!!

Don’t usually watch bookshelf tours as I don’t like the listing of books but appreciated how this was different. It was like going over to a friends house and looking through their shelves together

Fits well into my space, I painted the back green. It's very easy to customize just the back if that's something you want to do. I would suggest sanding it first before painting, I got a little impatient. The shelves kzread.infoUgkxM8H4CjCb79vzeyvgaFMdzmLm88oVFPMkare pretty small so keep that in mind if you're going to have it horizontal that some books won't fit. I like the snug look that it has. Good small shelf if you don't have much space, but not too small. Simple to put together, though you'll need your own tools, a screwdriver and a mallet/hammer, it's easiest to do with another person.

I love the way you did this tour. It wasn't boring at all

i totally respect the fact that you chose to keep all the books you read but maybe you could get rid of a few like the flame alphabet and campfire stories that you really, really don’t like to make room??

Omg, you found that edition of The Chronicles of Narnia in a used book shop???!!! 😱 I'd have died of happiness on the spot - I've wanted the edition for years but can't afford it. And found it for so little...pardon me while I drown in a pool of my own tears over here. 😢😭

Your shelves are way more organized than mine!! My shelves are just organized by where i can fit the books haha

Loved your tour! This isn't how I organize my shelves, but I absolutely love seeing other people's systems. Each library - and yes, if you have bookshelves you have a library, IMO - is unique to each person.

Loved this!! Definitely prefer these type of bookshelf tours where you're not necessarily name every single book. SO many books everywhere throughout your house haha love it!

LOVE how the books in Liam's room are displayed 😍😍

It just amazes me how differently everyone sorts their bookcases!!! And your methodology is very interesting....glad you spent the time to explain it so well. I may have to look into rearranging my bookcases. I’ve always just separated them into general genres (fiction, mystery, sf/fant, romance) then alpha by author within each genre.... Now I have a new Lala inspired book project to look forward to!!!

I loved your version of the bookshelf tour! It was enjoyable to watch the whole thing. I really appreciated it when you highlighted specific favorites of an author, or just all-time favorites. Nice organization!

definitely need an updated version of this in 2024

Ok I love this tour, you have so many books & it’s amazing 🙌🏻🙌🏻 I like that you organize it how it makes sense for you!

I love the way you organise your shelves 😍😍😍

WOW! Thank you for taking the time to make this video for us, I bet it took you forever, very well appreciated by all! I love how Liam's little library is set up, too cute! Can't wait for your next video!

Thanks for sharing! We are currently working on our own little library room and it's amazing how many we own! As long as they are organized how you like them, that works!

adore how you did this bookshelf tour 💕 so much more engaging then showing all the covers and saying the titles

I love your book collection and the way you showed it definitely my favorite. 💜💜👍

My favorite book shelf tour! You did it really nicely, thank you!

I love this version of a bookshelf tour! Liked that you told us some of your favourites!

youre videos always make my day. ive been anticipating the bookshelf tour since i started watching you.

I enjoyed this tour. Love looking at other people's shelves. Thank you. Catherine x

🙌🏻Vivek Shraya🙌🏻 I like the idea of organizing be genre, but I’m fully aware that if I did it, I’d basically have two categories: depressing Lit Fic and Translated depressing Lit Fic 😅 Fun Fact: Marisha Pessl did her author event at the Barnes & Noble where I previously worked for Neverworld Wake. She was so lovely-like, gorgeous, but then also so sweet and so excited for her books 🤗

Oh wow. I loved this. I love the setup in your son’s room. Fun tour of your books!!

LALA your bookshelf is so pretty as expected i’m shaken OMG 😭😭💕💕💕💕 ITS SO PRETTY UGH

I really appreciated how you named the authors all throughout, we're used to hearing the names of the books in these kinds of video... but naming the authors instead is really meaningful.

What an excellent book shelf tour! I enjoy tours the most that are an overview (like yours!) rather than people naming every single book. I loved seeing your collection and hearing about the way you organise your book shelves :).

Your son’s shelves look awesome!!! I’ve literally never considered having shelves with ALL the books forward-facing, and it looks so good!

I love the way your books are organized.

This is also how I organize my bookshelf. By genre and by author 💛 Thanks for this shelf tour!

Great video!! I spotted Darius the Great Is Not Okay on your TBR and I hope you read it soon, because that's my favourite book of the year and made me cry 6 separate times (which is a lot especially since I'm not a book crier)

You killed it! I'd been curious because I know you change the read shelf often. Plus the tbr shelf changes too. Thanks for posting it!

I love that you did this, it actually gave me some tips for fitting more books. I like the idea of the TBR shelf with most wanting to read and then backfilling with books from another TBR area! I also like the organization for read books by how many for each author. My read books that aren’t in series have basically no organization right now and I’m not a fan.

loved this tour! I've got a load more now on my to buy list you are a lot more organised than me but I seriously need more book shelves. When you then said oh theres books in the closet I was like 😯 lol love the shelves in your bedroom tho as just your tbr I think I may do that. Thank you for some great suggestions x

My favourite bookshelf collection ever!!! Amazing 👍👍👍

Dang, you have an awesome book collection! I love how you did the book shelves in your son's room :)

Seeing all your books makes me miss all my books. I had to give them all away when I moved to a different state. Now I’m slowing rebuilding my collection. And I think it’s really cool that your son is into reading!

I also used to own every book I read or wanted to read and then I moved once and I got rid of things so fast. Now it makes me happier to only have the essentials, both unread books I'm the most excited about and read books I will absolutely reread. I still uhaul books because I'm not perfect, but I'll set them aside and off my shelves for a month first to see if I miss them. If I don't, they're out. If it brings you more joy holding onto your read books, you go, but I would be overwhelmed.

Who else skipped ahead to see if she addressed the closet? WE KNOW YOUR SECRETS LALA!

You’re so organized, I love it! My boos are all in my bedroom but I don’t have enough space to have the same floor to ceiling bookshelves side by side, so some of my shelves are floor to ceiling, some are small, there’s a couple small ones actually hooked to my wall which may or may not be safe haha. And I try to organize by genre, but after a while it always gets kind of messy as more books come in.

I love bookshelf tours & bookshelf organization videos!

I love watching/listening to your videos La La! 😍

Love the way this is filmed! I was hesitant about watching this because I think those bookshelf tour videos where they jumpcut just saying the names of every. single. book. is so boring but the casual talkative format of this made the video so enjoyable!

Wow that closet threw me for a loop! I did not know you had a secret stash like everyone else lol And loved how you took a second to reorganize as you went

Thanks for your time! You are much appreciated and enjoyed😊

I'm not even a minute in, but I had to say I love the book setup in Liam's room. So cute.

I love this version of the bookshelf tour!

I've been really enjoying your channel! You have such a unique organization method haha - I have too many unread books on my 4 shelves and my thin corner shelf to be able to have just a "read" shelf if that makes sense. Can't wait to see more videos from you!

i really needed this video today, thanks lala

All the books I like is in your collection!! Agggh stunning bookshelf! 😍

I loved this tour! I do my books by genre and height but I think bookshelves are really personal spaces and very specific to each person so as long as youre happy thats all that matters I think!! I just listened to City of Ghosts on audio and it was GREAT!

LOVED this bookshelf tour 😍

I’ve been waiting for this FOREVER

The most beautifully disorganized organized bookshelves I've ever seen lol kidding I think the by genre organizing works really well and I imagine it's a lot better than the by color bookshelves!

Just stumbled upon your channel and your book collection wonderful. The library is one of my favorite places. I'm inspired to get my books out of boxes.

This was an amazing bookshelf tour!! I loved it! So i have most of my books in my room, I have to shelfs on the wall and one big shelf, and mostly I organize by genre but within the genre I try to split it with portuguese author/international author but it doesnt always work 😅 and I also try to put the unread books towards the end of the shelf to know those are unread! I also have some books put away in a box (mostly read ones but some unread ones too) because uni stuff is taking up a lot of space in the big shelf!

OMG the Angus Thongs series!!! what a throwback I loved them!

Love your shelves. Makes me want to organize mine. 💛

I love re-watching these, its always fun, but always watching Kayla's videos. A Lot! She points to a book on her TBR shelf and I'm like "You loved it", "Don't get to excited", "Your favorite 5 Star Book", makes me laugh for some reason 😆😍🥰

I love your TBR shelves! I have a 5-shelf bookcase double stacked and piled on top for my TBR shelf. I might have a problem.

I live for these longer videos; I stagger them out over 2-3 days and watch a bit every time I do dishes. Best part is that I actually get excited to do dishes! Lol

2022 Melissa here would love to request an updated tour!! 💕 I really liked the zoomed in style so I can see what’s on the shelf (titles) but you talk about your favorites from an author or fun facts about a book (like if it’s signed or it was a special edition you hunted down, etc). I think at one point you asked if we preferred the naming of the titles or authors and personally I would rather have the titles if you wanted to read them off one after the other! But it’s your channel, I’m going to watch either way! :D I also really like hearing about your systems and how you organize/methods.

I see Turtles All The Way Down in the closet! Would really recommend that book, it’s my favourite John Green and the synopsis doesn’t do it justice at all 😊

I have over a thousand books and we just keep growing. I have a traditional room for a library/office though. It's fun to see how you did it, because we are always looking for room to grow.

This is the most relateable bookshelf tour I've ever watched hahaha I actually did a poll recently asking if my viewers preferred I film an overview or pulling out each book individually and the overview won by A LOT. So, I think this is what people are wanting to see! =)

This video wins the interwebs. Loved it. ❤️

Omg SO MANY BOOKS SO LITTLE TIME

Omg i used to love the Louise Rennison books. I havd an insanley battered version of angus thongs and full frontal snogging. I think i need a re-read. 🌹

Lovely collection. I would love to see an all time favorite video.

So pumped for this!

An amazing middle grade is Peter nimble and his fantastic eyes, such a great stand alone. I organize my books with floating shelves from Amazon.

This is my favorite kind of tour!

I have only been into reading for about two or three years. I organize my bookshelf with my first self is classics and family photos. Then it starts all the books I’ve read in alphabetical order. Then it’s my tbr books in alphabetical order.

Thank you for the tour of your shelves. I don't have as many books as you do but you made me think about how to organize mine. I have a shelf for books signed by the author that ae in alphabetical order by author's name. The rest are far too random. I probably have several hundred books still in storage. You motivated me to get them out and shelve them.

Best bookshelf tour ever! This was the first one I’ve ever watched completely through. I liked that you didn’t list every book.

Omg I'm so excited for this video!!

Loved this video! So happy you did a bookshelf tour! If you do another again I would personally prefer that you say the names of the books more instead of the author but that’s just preference.

i see wilder girls (rewatching this after reading it, absolutely amazing, my second favorite book of all time)

i’m so excited for thisss

your voice got quieter and more fond in liam's room and that was so cute to hear :)

Under Rose Tainted Skies was so good! Excited for your thoughts :)

That was fun! It fascinates me how each of us have different ways of organizing and prioritizing our books. Four of my rooms have bookshelves in them - the Library/Office, the Livingroom, the Tea Room, and my Boudoir/Reading Room. There are also books in our Bedroom (I have no idea why I'm capitalizing the room descriptions, LOL), stacks of them near my side of the bed, a half dozen near hubby's side, but no bookshelves in there because for some inexplicable reason I don't like them in that room. I won't describe how I organize per shelf because that might tip this comment from short story into novella.

Oh, I think you might like Light Years (from your 2nd shelf in your closet). It's a space training book. It is set in space but mostly it just takes place in the training academy. If you do get around to it, I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts

Would love an updated bookshelf tour. I love seeing booktubers shelves ☺

This was an awesome video!. I still love the challenges with your husband! It's so interesting. Esp the last one where we learned of all your likes /dislikes why's & how's lol it was fun! Still, this was just as enjoyable!

I adore your bookshelf tour, kind regards from Croatia! :)

Yeah I love bookshelve tour 😍😍😍

I see you have The Silent Patient on your TBR shelf, I just read it and it was absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend it to be the next thriller you pick up when you are in the mood. I read it in one sitting because I needed to know what happened 😍

Absolutely beautiful shelves!

Loved this video, made me want to reorganize my shelves

I remember reading bone back in grade school i am now 21 and in my second year of college i would love to find some and read them again

So cool. Also love Liam’s room.

I have a small book collection, but even so how I organize them is sorta hand wavy. It's partially organized for the aesthetics, partly keeping together an authors collection, and partly keeping specific genres in certain places. It works and makes sense to me, but would probably drive other people a little bonkers, haha.
