After have to squeeze all my new books on top of the rest, because I am a slight book hoarder, I decided it was probably the time to rearrange my bookshelf, and clear a bit of space so everything could fit nicely - so I cleared a shelf, rather than having 2 shelves for books, I now have three. I spent a bit of time putting them in colour order, because uh, it looks great.

Rather than doing a tour of my bookshelf which I've done before here. Today I thought I'd do a bit more of a specific book based post - with my recommendations, to-read list etc.

So that was a little long-winded but I hope it inspired you to pick up a book!
Also worth noting, there are, of course, other books I love, which I just don't keep on my bookcase (Harry Potter - obviously, Looking for Alaska etc)

Please let me know if you have any book recommendations also!
