Review: Eleanor and Grey by Brittainy C. Cherry

Eleanor & Grey, an all-new beautiful and emotional standalone from Brittainy C. Cherry is available now! Greyson East left his mark on me. As the young girl who first fell for him, I didn’t know much about life. I did know about his smiles, though, and his laughs, and the strange way my stomach flipped when he was near. Life was perfect…until it wasn’t, and when we were forced to go our separate ways, I held on to our memories, let go of my first crush, and wished for the day I’d find him again. When my wish came true, it was nothing like I imagined. I couldn’t have known when I took the nanny position that it would be his children I looked after, that my new boss would be that boy I used to know, that boy who was now a man—a cold, lonely, detached man. The smile and laugh I had loved so much were gone, now distant memories. Every part of him was covered in a fresh pain. When he realized who I was, he made me promise to do my job and my job only. He made me promise not to try to ge...

The Secret

The Shelving Process: A Step-by-Step Guide

I don't think a lot of people understand how time consuming or anal retentive some bookish nerds can be about shelving books and overall bookshelf organization. Personally, I shelve everything alphabetically by authors last name, but I know other people do it a lot of different ways. 

Today as I was shelving my books I decided to take a few pictures and outline the process, just as something fun! Enjoy!

Step 1: Get books. This step is arguably the most time consuming because you have to decide which books to get, how much you're willing to pay for them, wait for them to be shipped to you (or go out and buy them yourself) then bring them to your shelves back at home.

Step 1a: If you have purchased a lot of books do not panic! This large stack can easily be organized and accomplished (I was panicking because I had three boxes to go through here, but I managed).




Step 2: Decide how to organize the books onto the shelves. As you can see here, I organized them in what seems to be a random mess, but in actuality they are near similar letters in the alphabet before they go into specific letter piles.



Step 3: Organize into specific piles. Want green spines together? That'll be pile one. Want authors A, B, C and so forth to be separate? Those will all be their own piles like I did here. 
















Step 4: Put the books on your shelves in whatever order you have decided upon. 

Step 5: Once you're done gaze upon your gorgeous shelves and proudly share your accomplishment to social media. You did it!

Here is the before and after pictures of my shelves:
