And we have our first set of bookshelf pictures for 2013! Woot woot! These awesome pictures come from a blog reader named Jon. Let's look closely at Jon's shelves, shall we?
The 2 pictures below are bookshelves made out of bricks! How cool is that? I think they're very utilitarian (and I imagine sturdy), and Jon mentioned that these were quite cheap to make.

Jon is big on chess. He has a whole bookcase devoted to this fine sport. (Wait, chess
is a sport, right?) I remember my dad having lots and lots of chess books too.
 |
Jon's chess books somehow inspire me to
take up chess again as a hobby. |
Below is a picture showing most of Jon's books. Topmost books are on poker. Below that, 2 rows of classics follow. In the left bookshelf are mostly nonfiction titles (e.g., science, history, and general knowledge).

The uber-thick book at the leftmost corner is
The Complete Illustrated Shakespeare
edited by Howard Staunton and illustrated by Sir John Gilbert. |

Jon's cozy corner
If you look closely, the web page shown
on the monitor is KyusiReader! |
Thank you, Jon, for sending these pictures. I hope you're having a wonderful start to 2013 in terms of reading!

Wow, the project is back!
While my daughter is coveting the Sir John Gilbert's Shakespeare, I adore his globe collection, especially that one on top of his fridge. :)
Yep, it's back! I still have some waiting to be featured! I would love to have that Shakespeare book myself!
I hope to get my basement library organized by the end of summer and will send you pics~
So excited to receive your pics, Harvee!
Can I just say what a comfort to find an individual who really knows
what they are talking about online. You actually know how to bring
a problem to light and make it important. More people need to read this and understand
this side of the story. I was surprised that you
aren't more popular given that you most certainly possess the gift.
