I tend to put the ones I don't mind people seeing I own in prominent places and try and put the more embarrassing ones on low shelves out of the way....
Does anyone else always find bookshelves bow?

What are potboilers? (serious question, not like the foxed shelves one:o)0 -
Is that a category of cookbook? I was more thinking of '20 minute meals for students' and similar :rotfl:lostinrates wrote: »Embarrassng books, like potboilers? I encourage friends to take any potboilers i have acquiredI think....0

I would organise into sections of interest and then sub divide into alphabetical and size order..wouldn't make much sense to anyone else but it would make me happier.
The rain finally reached us about 7 tonight...very grey and cold looking outside now.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Ilove books like that, not embarrassed of them. One of the most useful books i ever had was a cheapy 1001 recipes. I have a fair few of those sort of book. Should i be embarrassed?0 -

If so, that's one of the ones that we sent to the charity shop last year.
There are 1-2 I'd have liked to have kept, now I know how things have ended up .... but I'd have just ended up lugging them about forever .... and not using them. The Hamlyn All Colour Cookbook is one we chucked... and some 1960s ones, including the Dairy Book of Home Management, that the milkman sold in the early 70s, I still remember when my mum bought it. All went to the charity shop though.0
