Level 8

Reminds me of a lady that stayed with me a few years ago. Very nosy and used excuses to go through my things while I was at work. "Hi, I just folded all your jocks and socks, oh and I alphabetized your condiments cupboard." WTF? I have a condiments cupboard? So things were in alphabetical order, whereas I have the big ones at the back and small ones at the front, couldn't find a bloody thing until she left.

Worked in a library as a teen. I still sort by author or subject. It can't be conquered! How else do you find a favorite book again? Memorize the color on the binding?

You still read physical books?

@birdingnut Only the ones I own already. I have one room that has a dedicated library wall from BK (Before Kindle).

@BookDeath Even when I lived in the US, our library had books you could check out via Kindle. That saved a 12 mile drive in my huge SUV into town whenever I wanted books, plus having to return it, and possibly pay a fine, if late.
I even did my shopping online, since WalMart and Lowes would ship stuff to me overnight for $1..no way I could drive 15 miles to WalMart and Lowes for that price. But, of course, in Thailand, I buy all my books from the Kindle Store, since you can't buy books in English here.

@BookDeath We lose power here on a regular basis - at least a couple times a year. As my generator isn't working - real books are part of the "Surviving" process.

I go for random piles, as the book cases are mostly full. They are fairly well organized by type. We travel some, and country groupings, also.

Organized books you say? Mine tend to be sorted by order of completion.
