My bookshelves are a hot mess right now! I recently moved into a new house and I‘m still in the process of organizing my library. These are the first and last books of one of my shelves. Clearly, I‘m not going for alphabetical by author 😂 #literalbookends #24in48 #challengepost

rwmg By title perhaps? 7y

Bookworm83 @rwmg Nope! As of right now I just have a mess 😜 I do have the classics on a different shelf than everything else. 7y

BookishMe Hi again. FYI - The parcel had arrived in the States on 30th Jan. Not sure how long it will take to reach your town / local post office. 7y

Bookworm83 @BookishMe Thanks for keeping me updated. I‘ll let you know when it arrives. 7y

Mists of Avalon | Marion Zimmer Bradley

I‘ve had this one on my shelves for as long as I can remember. Every time I go through my books I debate getting rid of it, but it always seems to make the cut. Maybe one day I‘ll get to it! #24in48 #sharetheshame #challengepost

missberlyreads 😍 This is one of my all time favorites! 7y

Redy2trvl I was given this for my birthday and told not to read until this winter. My friend said it is a perfect snowstorm book. Well our big snowstorm has come and gone. I don‘t have the heart to tell her this book intimidates the hell out of me!!! 7y

Bkwurm I can't get rid of mine either. It's too harrowing to reread very often, but too good to give away! 7y

sprainedbrain I‘ve had this on my kindle forever. I need to read it! 7y

Bookworm83 @Redy2trvl Me, too! 😳 @Bkwurm Glad to hear it is a good one! @sprainedbrain Maybe a buddy read is in order at some point! 7y

jillannjohn This is one of my faves of all time. 7y

sprainedbrain @Bookworm83 I‘d be down for that! 7y

Tove_Reads Just finished it yesterday. Did a buddy read with @BookwormAHN. I think she‘s still reading. 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess I loved this book so much! I haven‘t read it in years. Maybe time for a reread. 7y

dragondrool To be honest, I've shuffled this one around it's TBR pile for years...way longer than The Book Which Shall Not Be Named. I did start it once. 7y

rwmg I read this back in the 1980s but I'm not sure I would read her now after the sexual abuse allegations from her children. 7y

Bookworm83 @rwmg I didn‘t know that. Thank you for sharing that with me 7y

A Prayer for Owen Meany | John Irving

One of my favorite book to movie adaptations is Simon Birch. I saw the movie first and loved it. I was given A Prayer for Owen Meany years later and loved it, too. It‘s one of my all time favorite books. #24in48 #challengepost

dragondrool I loved the movie. I've tried reading the book twice and got maybe a quarter of the way. Maybe I'll try again soon. 7y

Peddler410 Wait! Wait! Wait... Simon Birch is a movie adaptation of A Prayer for Owen Meany!? That book just got bumped up my TBR!! 7y

Bookworm83 @dragondrool There are definite differences between the book and the movie. I actually like the movie‘s storyline better. 7y

Bookworm83 @Peddler410 Yep!!! It‘s really good! 7y

dragondrool @Bookworm83 I remember it being markedly different. I think that's why I ditched it. 7y

Peddler410 I‘ve seen the movie, haven‘t read the book but I bought it about a year ago. I had no idea Simon Birch was based on this book. 7y

Bookworm83 @dragondrool @Peddler410 There is a lot that is different in the book. I could see people liking the movie more. I just like them both for different reasons 😊 7y
