My TBR Bookcase Tour – Shelf #1

If you follow me on instagram or twitter, you might have seen I had a brand new bookcase last week, which meant I had an afternoon of pure joy as I sorted out all my unread books and placed them lovingly in my bookcase.
 
I absolutely love watching bookshelf tours on Youtube, and while I’m not yet brave enough to make a video, I thought I would do a bookshelf tour of my new bookcase, which I have dedicated to special books and books that I’m waiting to read.
 
I’ve decided to split it into several parts, otherwise the list will go on for far too long for one post. So starting with the top shelf, here we go…
 
 
 

Shelf #1

This shelf is where I keep what I class as my special books. They start with books I am mentioned in. They then move onto my signed books, and then end in the beautiful classic editions my parents buy me at Christmas. I’ve actually read a fair chunk of these books (indicted by (R)) but they’ve mostly been in Kindle format before I had the signed ones, which is excellent as it means I can keep the special books pristine. No cracked spines for me, thank you!
