The bookshelf struggle

Post by Mirby_ »

Is it just me or when you buy a new book, you need to get another bookshelf? I'm always running out of space! Does anyone have any suggestions on how to save space so I can save money? Other then me not buying any more books. That's not an option. :D What are your suggestions?
Till next time,

Indeed! ebooks are the way to go if you read a lot of books! No new space is needed! Or maybe you should start going to the library so you don't have to keep your books?

I've been giving books away to friends if I haven't read them in a while or don't plan to read them again. :)

Or Goodwill or Thrift Stores? Pay it forward? ;)

You know what bookshelves never run out of space no matter how many books you put in them?

The Bookshelves at Online Book Club.

They are also free, and go great with the other members' suggestion to move to ebooks.

I actually thought that's what this post was going to be about when I first saw the title. :character-oscar:
