Back during Covid, my son colour blocked all my tbr books (that would fit on the one set of shelves I had for them). This morning, I thought I would reorganize them alphabetically and integrate the books in my bedroom because, frankly, it‘s impossible to find anything. In doing so, I discovered….I need more shelves. 😂🤣🤪

SpeculativeFemale I feel your pain on this. I'm thinking about attempting to make risers to try double stacking some of my deeper shelves to see if that helps. 1w

Deblovestoread The struggle is real. I have no more space for shelves and the double stacking is beginning. Good luck! (edited) 1w

Confessions of St. Augustine (Revised) | St Augustine

pick

It is a great book for many reasons, raw perspectives throughout, but is a great way to start to understand atheism. St Augustine‘s Confessions lays bare the complete inadequacy of religion to answer the great questions of life – which are really no different now than they were when he was grappling with them.

The Last of the Fathers: Saint Bernard of Clairvaux and the Encyclical Letter Doctor Mellifluus | Thomas Merton

pick

The first half is Merton. The second is Pius XII. I found the first part both more readable and more valuable. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Confessions | Saint Augustine of Hippo

Recent acquisition for our personal library.

I casually collect interesting Penguin Classics and you're looking at a handful of the first PCs, the 'L series'. Some are American editions with price in $ and some are British with price in £. They sit on my desk at the standalone mid-size public library where I have worked for 17 years and where I am the librarian over adult nonfiction, local history, and reference.

The Age of Bede | David Hugh Farmer

Random book from our personal library.

Read in 2005. ★★★★★

We visited Bede's tomb in Durham Cathedral in Oct 2016 and it was a very moving experience. I lit a candle in memory of the patron saint of historians. As I respectfully explored the Gallilee Chapel, I looked up and saw the original painting from the cover of this book high up on a wall, slightly hidden from the casual tourist. It was so wonderful and unexpected that I almost fell over.

SamAnne What a lovely story. 2mo

First op shop visit yesterday. I was heading to Cardiff to visit Dance Boutique for the required theatrical pink tights so I‘m allowed to dance in the Sydney Eisteddfod this weekend! It‘s near 3 op shops so of course I took advantage of that.
