I also loves arranging and rearranging them on our bookshelves. I'm now sad though because our new house doesn't have any and I've gotten so used to the built in ones here I wont have anywhere to put them for a while. :( I love books allthough I only buy ones I intend to read.

Guess I never thought about that. I'm so busy buying them to read, re-read, and re-read, that I never got around to trying to color coordinate them or dress them up. The closest I've ever gotten is separating them by general type and major author - Sci Fi, Romance, Self Help and then Twilight and Harry Potter (of course) sections all of their own. I have an entire shelf for Anne McCaffrey because she's my favorite and very prolific too. Books as decor? Guess I never thought about that.
