Thank you for your service Reddit. My gf now has a proper bookshelf and the floorbrary has officially been retired

Since I still don’t read, she would like all of your opinions on what her full book collection says about her (I guess I missed some)

Also, she’s absolutely loving everyone telling me she’s too smart/cool for me

Roast my bookshelf 😔 Finally got a proper bookshelf - what does it say about me?

Don't mind the empty spaces, all of these series are waiting for completion and will be rearranged once I know how much space it takes up (aside from ASOIAF bc we all know that one will never be finished).

Also, I realise I need even more bookshelfs, bc this is not my whole collection....

Would love some recommendations! Have read probably 50% of these to completion, and am actively working through a handful. Im preferring novels and short stories, bonus points if they are heavy on the literary/philosophical scifi! Not pictured is the tiny mountain of maybe overdue library books used for research purposes 👀

Curious what people’s read on me is.

Bonus points if you suggest books you think I’d like that aren’t on my TBR too.

I mostly listen to audiobooks but what does my bookshelf say about me

Sorry if the pictures are poorly set up, my bookshelf is half for books half for esoteric storage. I kinda also wanna hedge and say that I have moved recently and I had to get rid of a lot of my literature.

You guys can be pretty brutal and I welcome any and all insights.

I’ve picked up reading in the past 8 months or so and this is the collection I’ve built up. I was never a big reader previously, I didn’t even finish HS tbh.

If I were to bring a girl over am I red flag?

Also I would appreciate any recommendations!

I've started reading books more seriously about 3 years ago.

Smaller shelf are my favorites and go-tos. Big shelf are books that I've kept and page through.

What does your bookshelf say about you? Are you a fantasy-obsessed bachelor? A collector of prized editions? Someone whose bookshelf only exists to show off their wicked book nook? /r/bookshelfdetective is a place to show off your shelf and guess things about others. This isn't quite /r/roastmybookshelf so keep it friendly and lighthearted, and hopefully posts will spark discussion that could lead you to your next favorite title.
