Definitely would love to see more organizing videos. Love this type of content in general. Would also be interesting to see how you mix your books with your partner's.

Your enthusiasm is infectious. Seeing all your books arranged in their glory makes me happy too!

Aw I’m so glad you enjoyed organising with me!!

You should be so proud to display your own books and awards!! Can’t think of a better motivation for you in your office! ❤

I love your enthusiasm in this video. The moment of pride and joy when you got the organization the way you wanted 😊

Aw thank you! They are making me very happy to look at aha.

Pro-tip: Always get at least one extra shelf when buying Billy bookcases. For some reason they only include 5 shelves and the spacing between them mean you end up with a lot of dead space otherwise. ETA: You have enough Penguin paperbacks to fill one whole shelf. If you move the shelves around a bit you could make just enough space for the smaller paperbacks to fit. Then you can make another shelf for the larger paperbacks. Now you should have enough room to add in another shelf level. I think it looks really good when all shelves across all bookcases are the same height in relation to each other but it does take a bit more fiddling with the organisation. I put my pretty books on display in from of my uglier books, that way I can cover them up and at the same time show off my pretty books. Your award *needs* to be center at eye level. You deserve that much.

We want all the parts 😍 I would love to see more bookshelfs organising and bookshelf tour ❤

The shelves turned out lovely! The stress about organizing your home is completely relatable.

I recently had to redo my whole library, in the midst of having additional things in the same room. It took a week and a lot of shuffling, bringing in additional bookcases and weeding through some books. I just got the books into place and then went back and restyled. That took the pressure off styling something and then having to demolish it so that things would fit. Being flexible was the order of the day. Take that with you as you do the rest of the house and you’ll have conquered it all sooner than you think.

You did such a good job! Re-organising my bookshelves stresses me out so much already and I have nowhere near as many books as you! ❤

Would love another organisation video for the other bookshelves, as I’m a fantasy reader myself! Also this is the first time I’ve come across your KZread after following you on TikTok for a little while and love your longer form content! We get to see so much more of your personality, it’s lovely to watch! Side note: I loved watching your speechlessness at the end of this as someone who struggles to wrangle words together into a sentence quite often. I too am better in writing and this video made me feel less like a failure for not being able to speak too well sometimes.

I saw the title of this video and screamed "YESSS!!!" 😂 Edit: I absolutely LOVE how they've turned out. I need more parts. I need ALL the parts!

If you have more than 1000 books, you are considered to have a library! Congrats!

Life goal achieved!

Just stumbled across this video and as you organised your books it was making me think of my daughter, who's an ancient history graduate. She has a billy in her room full to bursting of ancient history and mythology texts as well as lots of other stuff too! Then when you showed your book and opened it up to Rhiannon it was even better, as that's her name 😊 Think I need to get her your book to add to the collection!

Love to see book shelf tour when you have done everything Jean !❤ love the video

I will say that Billy Bookcases are my favourite bookcases that I've come across, in part because they fit a lot more books than you think they would and they are very strong and sturdy. I've used bookcases from other companies before (Argos, and Vida Designs) but they aren't as roomy or as solid. Unfortunately, I've not been able to get as many Billy's as I'd like because of the cost of getting them delivered, so I've had to make do with other brands.

Your bookshelves look gorgeous. Looking forward to more videos of organising other bookshelves and updated bookshelves. I organise my bookshelves by the author.

I'm honestly so impressed by the great job you did with the shelves in the middle of all the chaos that comes with moving! They look fantastic! 😍

Yes, I would like to see ALL the book shelf organising 😄 Some kind of tour would also be nice, if you're up to it after playing irl book Tetris.

yay! love this and totally relate to the excitement + stress, lol! Last autumn I started redoing a room (my computer and tv/movie room) and only finished it in late February, which then lead to going through and completely reorganizing all my books and movies! I basically spent most of my free time in March doing that but I'm glad I took my time with it for it to feel finished. Well, finished for now. Adding more to my collections will mean maneuvering and shifting things around a bit. But I'm so happy with the redone room and most of the organization of my stuff!! :D One shelf looks just alright- could look worse- but ended up being mostly leftover titles that didn't necessarily go with others and that kind of look bad next to each other, lol. whatever comes next, I'm here for- another part of organizing and definitely a shelf tour!

They look great! Will be happy to see more organising videos, if you’re up for it. ❤

Not sure if you've already done a video on this topic, but i'd be se excited if could make one talking about all those books on witchcraft!

My poor books who have been sitting in moving boxes for more than 3 months support this video! 😁 When I first got to buy bookcases I obviously bought Billy shelves because of booktube 🤭 And lastly, your shelves look soo beautiful! 😍

Loeb Classics! Pricey but worth it.🧡

Honestly! Some of those were such big helps during my studies. I missing having access to the LOEB online database through Edinburgh Uni. I wish those kind of things were cheaper/free aha.

Definitely would love to see more organizing videos! Your office bookshelves are lovely! Congratulations on moving into your new home. I organize by fiction/nonfiction and then by country/continent.

Meanwhile I'm still trying to organise my books just right more than two years after my move 😂. It looks great!

I can lack a lot of chill - I do not relax well aha

I love my billy shelves. When I bought my flat I thought I'd splash on built-in floor-to-ceiling bookcases but figured out that the billys along with the height extension you can get for them pretty much reached the ceiling anyway, so it was such great value for money for basically the same result

I seriously love your dress and vest and your excitement is contagious in this video ☺️

I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

Interesting to hear different methods to organising. I organised mine by tbr shelves then everything else lumped together x

Organize? My books? Fantasy on one side and historical fiction on the other side ... mostly. Kind of. But when we move and my books will be all over the condo then I will have to come up with another plan I guess. My brain hurts just thinking about it!. Meanwhile, love your new set up Jean and look forward to seeing more!

Tunnock's Caramel Wafers - my favourite!!!

I literally subscribed to your channel a few days ago to watch all the organizational videos!

I'd like to see a bookshelf tour where you mention the books that you have on your shelves instead of just your favorites or something even if it's a long video or it has to be done in parts.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on Aristotle after you said that about being a hater! Have you done a video discussion before? Or would you be willing to do a discussion on your thoughts on Aristotle? I know very little beyond his Apology which was written by his student Plato, so please educate me :)

PS great job on organising the shelves! I have a small book collection on 1 bookshelf and I get fed up of trying to organise them so by the last shelf I end up putting them wherever they fit 😅

Yes show us other unboxing please

I'm not seeing 'A History of Women in 101 Objects' ? I recommend tandem reading it on audio and book so 100 famous women can read it to you but you don't miss the pictures.

I'm moving house very soon; please come and help me organise my Billys 😅
