Book Shelf

I saw this done on another blog.  Tagged bloggers post a "shelfie", like a selfie, only of their bookshelf.  No, I haven't been tagged (haven't been around long enough for that to happen!), I wanted to do it because it looked fun.

First off, here is the full bookshelf:
 

The top shelf is supposed to be my favorite books...
 

 
... but there were some that weren't able to fit...
 
 
...and then, because everywhere else was full, Harry Potter is nestled in a completely different shelf.
 

And that's my bookshelf!

Would it look really arrogant for me to do a "shelfie" without being tagged for it, and then tag other people?  I feel I don't know the blogging community well enough to tag others anyway...

How about this.  I will not tag anybody.  But, if you are reading this, I would love to see a photo of your bookshelf, with a link to it in the comments.  I am always excited to see what tales other book lovers hold dear.  :)

A Fresh Page: The First Post

So, a new blog!  Hopefully a little more mature than the last one, though likely with a more sporadic update schedule.
 
In any case, I believe an introduction is in order:
 
My name, for the purposes of this blog, is Rae.  I am a Christian and a homeschooled book-lover.  I love...
 
-Scripture
-C.S. Lewis
-literature in general
-mountains and rivers
-music, from rock to classical, Christian to choral
-history
-Tales of Goldstone Wood by Anne Elisabeth Stengl
-Harry Potter
-doodling
-poetry
 
... and many other things, but we'll leave it at that.
