Then I got more books and certain series would fit on the same shelf as the other books in that genre. So, unfortunately, there is no real organization right now.

I am waiting till my sisters get back from uni so we can watch it all four of us... but they better hurry up xD Been distracting myself with other new movies for the time being. I wasn't sure about Bad Neighbours too. I do like my fair dose of Seth Rogen and Zac though, so perhaps I will see it for that. :D<br /><br />http://olivia-savannah.blogspot.nl/2014/06/city-of-heavenly-fire-book-review.htmlOlivia's Catastrophehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12706765857201768908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583004298603696672.post-70229040936190933402014-06-12T17:55:36.502+01:002014-06-12T17:55:36.502+01:00Movie: I think this is a movie I will wait for th...Movie: I think this is a movie I will wait for the DVD. I love the premise and the funny of it all but I have to say that the cost of movies has moved me to see great epic (action, artsy) movies on the big screen and movies like this at home.<br /><br />I love your bookcase. I have mine sorted in TBR and Read/Keep shelves. I loved the Harry Potter series but I did not the last book. I love following characters as they grow and learn throughout the books.<br />Alysiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02921848593897537382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583004298603696672.post-88450424870176501242014-06-12T14:21:06.213+01:002014-06-12T14:21:06.213+01:00MOVIE: I didn't mind Bad Neighbours.

While it wasn't original by any standpoint and the laughs were truly mediocre at best, it entertained me just enough to feel like I didn't completely waste my money. I'd give it a five as well.<br /><br />BOOKSHELF: My setup is pretty similar to yours in theory. All of my favorite series are prominently displayed in my living room bookshelves. The one's I'm less excited about or that got DNF'ed get banished to the bookshelf in my room. But then there's my digital bookshelves. Those are grouped by genre then by series alphabetically. I think that's the one place that my mothers A personality rubbed off on me. Digitally, I'm anal about organization.<br /><br />SERIES: I'm with you -- a series with a central character is my favorite type to get into. It's all about the journey, and that's better with one perspective. Then again, one of my favorite series isn't written like that at all, <a href="http://neverenoughshelfspace.blogspot.com/2014/06/thoughtful-thursday-favorite-series-type.html" rel="nofollow">my post.</a>Pagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00190463734377088621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583004298603696672.post-70750722217058929782014-06-12T11:24:00.194+01:002014-06-12T11:24:00.194+01:00I tried colour coding but it drove me crazy after ...I tried colour coding but it drove me crazy after about 10 seconds because it wasn't in any particular order other than colour.

I'm from the UK so I can only really go on what I see on TV/movies and you can tell it's not really that accurate a portrayal, at least I hope not.<br /><br />I get what you mean, in that case I start to feel like the story has just been dragged out. I think it's part of the reason I didn't like After the End so much because it's just one story to me, didn't require that pointless cliffhanger ending and being dragged out to more than 1 book.

And sororities and fraternities are always portrayed in an exaggerated (usually bad) way in movies. I was actually a little sister in a fraternity in college and I've never seen a movie come close to portraying what it's actually like. <br /><br />Series…something that's been bothering me lately is a book in a series that reads as part of a book rather than a book, if that makes any sense. Even if it's a series, each book should have a story where the main plot gets wrapped up. It seems like more and more trilogies are just one big book that's been split up into three books and that's driving me crazy!! I don't think Harry Potter or The Hunger Games is like that (although maybe books 2 and 3 of THG is). But I do agree that I love getting to know the characters better through having multiple books. I basically have a love/hate relationship with series right now. Great post!! ~Pamyaescapefromrealityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200254719073248981noreply@blogger.com
