Just moved and spent today unpacking my books. I have three shelves devoted to King material and am trying to decide how to organize it (my husband thinks it is ridiculous that I am struggling with this and that I would go to an online forum for help- he just doesn't understand!)
I have a combination of hardback and paperback which complicates things. I'm considering sorting based on publication date (with the exception of the Dark Tower books which are shelved together as 1-4, 4.5, 5-7 and other sets would be together as well- Desperation/Regulators, the trilogy when I own all of them, etc.), but would need to do the hardback as a set and the paperbacks separately as my OCD tendencies do not allow for mixing them. Also debating separating the short story collections from the novels. I also have my books about King to shelf together, and some oddballs like the GWLTG pop up book.
So, what does everyone else do with their collection? Alphabetical? Dewey decimal system?
