My resolution this year is to organize my library. Most of my collection is nonfiction, so I’ve started working on putting everything in order by Library of Congress style. The number of books is probably in the low thousands - I think another mission might be to catalog them while I’m at it.

Any tips or suggestions? If you have a larger collection, how do you organize and catalog your books?

    I mean, I can see Lewis’ argument, if you’ve built a fictional world, it makes sense to start from “In the beginning…” instead of “Joshua Judges Ruth” (the funniest series of Old Testament book titles).

    But from a NARRATIVE perspective, that 6th book was informed by the 5 that came before it. You can’t read it first.
