bookshelf tour 2023!! going through every book i own

I recently completely reorganized my bookshelves and they are no longer in a rainbow so I figured it was about time for me to do another bookshelf tour. This is gonna be like an updated one. I'm currently filming this at the end of January in 2024 so it's gonna be kind of my like start of 2024 bookshelf tour and I'm so excited. I feel like they have massively grown on me. If you watched my reorganization video I'll link it somewhere up here if you haven't already seen it. It took me a minute, it took me very much a minute to get used to my shelves looking like this because I have had a rainbow shelf for pretty much 10 years at this point so I've really liked having them like this in the end. Having all my series together, having everything kind of coherent has actually been very nice on my little brain. So I'm gonna go through every single book that I own. I think I have around about 300 books on these shelves and I think about 70 of those are unread. Again I used to have my books split up between read and unread and I no longer have that. So I do have my Goodreads link down below. I do have a Goodreads shelf that is literally called I think my bookshelves and that has every single book that I have on these shelves. Also my to be read shelf on Goodreads is purely books that I already own so that is like my physical TBR. Then obviously I have a read shelf of all of the books that I have read so if you were ever curious it is all listed on my Goodreads as well as obviously having my physical TBR and every single book that I have on this shelf is listed on there. So I have a I'm gonna crack on with it. We're gonna go through every book. I'm not gonna pull every single book out but we are gonna go through every single book that I have on these shelves. You might have to bear with me for these top shelves because obviously they are very high up and I can't reach them very well and neither can my camera but this is my first shelf here. We are organized kind of by series here. I have my fantasy series all here. So the first two books that I have here are One Dark Window and Two Twisted Crowns both by Rachel Gillig. I then have my Shades of Magic series by V.E. Schwab. So we have A Darker Shade of Magic, A Gathering of Shadows and A Conjuring of Light. This series here I've kind of mushed together so we have the Blood and Ash series and also kind of some of the Flesh and Fire series. So we have From Blood and Ash, Kingdom of Flesh and Fire, A Crown of Gilded Bones, A Shadow in the Ember and then I have A Light in the Flame here because it is taller than all of my other books and doesn't fit this way which is really annoying but they're all by Jennifer L. Almontrout. Next up I have Fury Born and Kingsbane both by Claire Legrand. Legends and Lattes and Bookshops and Bonedust both by Travis Bouldry. And then finally for this shelf I have Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom both by Leigh Bardugo. Next I have my special edition of Six of Crows. This is like a foiled one with red sprayed edges and I have Dune part one and Dune part two. These are both sort of the graphic novels of the Dune world. Next is Divine Rivals and Ruthless Vows both of these are by Rebecca Ross. These Violent Delights by Chloe Gong. And I then have the Mistborn series so I have The Final Empire, The Hero of Ages and The Well of Ascension all by Brandon Sanderson. This is the last super high up shelf so I'm hoping from here on out the angles will be ever so slightly better. The first books I have on here are Once Upon a Broken Heart and The Ballad of Never After both by Stephanie Garber. I then have The Priory of the Orange Tree and A Day of Fallen Night both by Samantha Shannon. Throne of the Fallen by Kerry Maniscalco. I then have the War of Lost Hearts series so I have Daughter of No Worlds, Children of Fallen Gods and Mother of Death and Thorn all by Carissa Broadbent. We kind of now move on to my like either standalone fantasies or fantasies that I don't own more books in the series from. The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake. A Fate of Wrath and Flame by K.A. Tucker. King of Battle and Blood by Scarlett Sinclair. A Touch of Darkness also by Scarlett Sinclair. Powerless by Lauren Roberts one of my favorites. Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo. Middle Game by Shauna McGuire. Godkiller by Hannah Kainer. The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang. I then have a random little series here. I have The Bridge Kingdom and The Traitor Queen both by Jenna L. Jensen. I adore this series so much. And then the last three books on this shelf I have A Deal with the Elf King by Elise Kovar. Half a Soul by Olivia Atwater and then The Invisible Life of Atelier Rue by V.E. Schwab. We are now onto my Sarah J Maas shelves. The next three shelves are all Sarah J Maas going along the way because I have a hell of a lot of her books. So this first one here is kind of Throne of Glass dedicated. So I have my original paperbacks of the kind of UK versions of Throne of Glass. I do have Tower of Dawn and Assassin's Blade sat here purely because Tower of Dawn looked nasty when it was sat amongst these ones because these are so gorgeous. And then the Assassin's Blade no one ever really knows where to put it so I've put it here. I ended up reading this book kind of in the middle of the series. I think I read it maybe just before Heir of Fire maybe just after. I then have my new paperback covers of Throne of Glass as well. And then finally on this shelf I have my hardback version of Kingdom of Ash. Next up is my little Crescent City collection here. So I have all of the hardbacks of Crescent City. So I have House of Earth and Blood, House of Sky and Breath, and now House of Flame and Shadow as well. I then also have two paperbacks. These don't match which kind of makes me upset. This is the kind of original paperback and then they redid the covers for when they came out with House of Sky and Breath so they don't really match. But I do have paperbacks of both of the first two books as well. And then finally this is one of my pride and joys. I have the tour version of the Crescent City hardback. So this is a signed version of House of Earth and Blood and it has three levels as possible. I just think it's gorgeous. I love this. Moving right on over I now have basically my ACOTAR shelf. So I have the original hardbacks of the entire series. I do get asked quite a lot where I got these from but I am obviously based in the UK and I just got these as they came out. I obviously read this book like when it came out I think in like 2015 or whatever. So I bought them as they were released. I don't think they are available anymore but that is how I got my hands on them. I then also have the original paperbacks of the entire ACOTAR series as well. And I then have the new covers of the paperbacks which I'm not going to get out because I'm sure you all know what they look like. This is another one of my pride and joys. I have the collector's edition of A Court of Thorns and Roses. I think it's gorgeous. It has Favera with her like bow and arrow here and then a wolf on the back and I think it's absolutely stunning. It does come in this really cool box as well but I just tuck that behind it. And then finally for this shelf I have Fourth Wing and Iron Flame both by Rebecca Yaros. We now move on to my romance section. So the first books that I have here are the entirety of the Chestnut Springs series. This is my favorite romance series to ever exist. Elsie Silver is quite possibly one of my favorite authors of all time and this book specifically, Flawless, is my favorite book in this whole series. I then also have the Goldrush Ranch series also by Elsie Silver. I feel like this series is slept on. If you haven't read this already and you did enjoy her other books this series is just as good. I think A Photo Finish is my favorite one of the whole series. I absolutely adored it. It's phenomenal. And then finally on the top here I also have Mile High, The Right Move and Caught Up all by Liz Tom Ford. I adore this series. The Right Move is one of my favorite books to ever exist. Moving on to the next two books you can kind of tell that I've put my favorite series at the start here. Obviously I love Chestnut Springs and Goldrush Ranch and also the Liz Tom Ford series but Behind the Net and The Fake Out are some of my favorite books also of all time. I adore these covers so much. I actually think that The Fake Out is probably, other than Flawless, my favorite romance book to ever exist. I would highly highly recommend this series. I've done a bit of a hockey romance section here so obviously we have the Vancouver Storm series and now I also have the Rules of the Game series by Avery Keelan. So this is Offside and Shut Out. Next up is Pucking Around and Pucking Wild both by Emily Rath. Consider Me, Play With Me and Unravel Me all by Becca Mack. And then I have the first three books in the Addicted series. So I have Addicted to You, Ricochet and Addicted for Now all by Kristen Becker-Ritchie. The next little cube here are also some more romance series. So I have the Twisted series which is Twisted Love, Twisted Games, Twisted Hate and Twisted Lies all by Anne Huang. And then I have the Brutal Birthright series. This isn't all of the books but they're all of the books that have been released in these new paperbacks so far. So I have Brutal Prince, Stolen Heir, Savage Lover, Bloody Heart and Broken Vow. I have just realized these are out of order. Brutal Prince should be before Stolen Heir. I then have my three knock-em-out books. So I have Things We Never Got Over, Things We Hide From The Light and Things We Left Behind all by Lucy Skor. And then finally I have Icebreaker and Wildfire both by Hannah Grace. This next shelf is kind of a continuation of more romance books. These however are less series and kind of more groupings of authors. So for example I have my Ali Hazelwood books and there's my Eleanor Armour's books and LMAs and so on and so forth. So I have The Love Hypothesis, Love on the Brain, Love Theoretically and Low to the Love You all by Ali Hazelwood. I then have The Spanish Love Deception, The American Roommate Experiment and The Long Game all by Eleanor Armour. I'm not going to pull these out as they're all nicely stacked up but I have Marriage for One, To Hate Adam Connard, To Love Jason Thorne, Charlie Loving Clichés and The Hardest Fall all by Eleanor Mayes. And then I also have The Plus One by Maisie Eddings sat up here because I couldn't fit it in anywhere else. Next is Love Like Farms, In The Weeds and Mixed Signals all by BK Morrison, When In Rome and Practice Makes Perfect both by Sarah Adams. And then one of my favorite books of all time I have The Love Wager by Lynn Painter. These last ones are kind of the odd ones out on this shelf because they are series. So I have the Magnolia Park series which is Magnolia Park, Daisy Hates and then The Long Way Home and The Great Undoing. And then I have Binding 13, Keeping 13, Saving 6 and Redeeming 6 all by Chloe Walsh which is the Boys of Tomlin series or at least the ones that I own so far. This is kind of a continuation of kind of series but also kind of just authors that I've lumped together. So I have my Lauren Asher books here. I have The Fine Print, Terms and Conditions and Final Offer which is the Dreamland Billionaires series. And then I have Throttled and Collided which are the first two books in the Dirty Air series. And then I have Love Redesigned as well by Lauren Asher which is the first book in the Lakefront Billionaires series. I also have A Not So Meek You, A Not So Meant To Be and A Long Time Coming all by Megan Quinn. This is the Kane Brothers series I believe it's called. I then have my two Rosie Donnan books. The Roommate is one of my favorite books to ever exist. I love this book so much. And then The Intimacy Experiment is kind of like a companion novel to the first one. Next is Two Wrongs Make a Right and Better Hate Than Never both by Chloe Lise. I then have Get a Life Chloe Brown, Act Your Age Eve Brown and Take a Hint Dani Brown all by Talia Hibbert. We then have my Abi Jimenez books. I absolutely adore Abi Jimenez so we have the Happy Ever After playlist, Part of Your World and then Yours Truly. Yours Truly is another one of my favorite books to ever exist. Next up is my stack of Tessa Bailey books. So the first two I have here are It Happened One Summer and Hook, Line and Sinker. I then have Secretly Yours and Unfortunately Yours and then My Killer Vacation and Window Shopping. Window Shopping is one of my favorite books again to ever exist which I feel like is kind of an unpopular opinion. I also do have more Tessa Bailey books they're just on the next shelf over because they couldn't all fit. On this little cube I have my Emily Henry books and then my continuation of my Tessa Bailey books. So the first one I have here is Happy Place by Emily Henry and then Beach Read, You and Me on Vacation and Book Lovers again obviously by Emily Henry. I have my last three Tessa Bailey books here so I have Tools of Engagement, Fix Her Up and Love Her or Lose Her. I absolutely adored Tools of Engagement and then these two books I could definitely do without. And then finally on the shelf I have a random Limp Paint book we have Mr. Wrong Number. On this shelf I tried to go back to my roots and have like a mini rainbow going on so these are all kind of miscellaneous romance books that are either standalones or ones that I don't have any other books in the series or maybe I don't have any other books from that author. I have From the Embers by Ali Martinez, Archer's Voice by Mia Sheridan, Done and Dusted by Lila Sage. I love this book.

I then have the first few books in the Salacious Players series so I have Praise, Eyes on Me, Give Me More and then Mercy all by Sarah Kate. I'm also well aware that Praise does not have the same covers as the other one and believe me, I am just as annoyed as you probably are. I did order it in the original cover and it turned up and it was the new one so what can you do? I then have the Priest series by Sierra Simone so I have Priest, Sinner and also Saint all by obviously Sierra Simone. I then have the Four Horsemen series. Now if you've been with me for a while you might know my feelings towards this series but I have Pestilence, War, Famine and Death all by Laura Thalassa. These covers are literally gorgeous, I'm going to show you them one by one. Pestilence, War, Famine and then Death. It's a shame that I don't like this series because these covers are literally gorgeous. Next are the first three books in the Kings of Sin series so I have King of Wrath, King of Pride and then King of Greed all by Anna Huang. I also have Flock by Kate Stewart, A Million Kisses in Your Lifetime by Monica Murphy and then I also have the, I don't know what to call this series, it's like the twisted series, like the hooked, twisted, wretched, scarred and crossed all by Emily McIntyre. They're like the fairy tale retelling kind of romance book. No idea what the series is called but I do own I think currently all of them. This is literally just a random mishmash of all of the random romance books that kind of didn't fit anywhere else. So I have The Sweetest Oblivion and The Maddest Possession by Daniel Laurie. I love this series. Still Beating by Jennifer Hartman. Punk 57 by Penelope Douglas. Ghosted by J.M. Dalhauer. A Dowry of Blood by S.T. Gibson. If He Had Been With Me by Laura Nowlin. Rhapsodic by Laura Thalassa. Salt Kiss by Sierra Simone. My Dark Romeo by Parker S. Huntington and L.J. Shen. Butcher and Blackbird by Bryn Weaver. This book is so fun.

So I have The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. Ari Soto is back. Malibu Rising and then Daisy Jones and the Six.

So I have Under The Whispering Door and then The House in the Cerulean Sea. I put my three lonely witch books together.
