yes they very much are! Lol that's funny! Yeah I know how you feel they do look nice all together but I need to store my old children's books somewhere else and arrange them differently.My son was tidying up one of the bookcases and PUT SOMEONE ELSE ON THE KING'S SHELF. That's not allowed, not ever. But I don't order them in any way - I just like to see them hanging out together.
Hahaha um......vaguely by heightSo are they arranged in chronological or alphabetical order?

You are crazy organized!OMG! THE NERVE OF SOMEPEOPLE!!
I have a hardcover copy of every King novel, even the DT. Back when he published volume 5, Viking re-issued the first 4 in HC and naturally I had to have them. Mine are in order of publication on the shelf, with a couple of them being kind of tired, or "much enjoyed" if you prefer.
I'm not sure about organized, but I can manage obsessive occasionally.You are crazy organized!
Poor Charlie! I'll show you a picture of all my books to make you feel better. It'll probably take me all weekend. I don't have a smart phone, so I have to snap it, download camera to laptop, and then upload to site. It's such ancient technology.I got a rock.........

'Twas me! Just teasing!I went to my Half Priced Books in Okc because usually I can find a hardcover SK book for about three bucks but the last two times I went nothing...I mean not even in paperback. I think someone cleaned them out.
I have been looking for this book for months. No luck so far! Finding lots of The Passage tho.....Just picked up a hardcover first printing of Justin Cronin's The Twelve (sequel to The Passage) at our local library's book sale for $1.00.

What a Constant Reader you are! Way to go Renee!Well, I've hit the jackpot over the past 2 weeks. KFF (Linda) sent me: The Bachman Books, Thinner, Cell, Desperation, The Regulators, The Dead Zone and Firestarter. Then my husband hit it big at a thrift store and brought home: The Talisman, It, The Stand, The Dark Half, Cell, Desperation, and Four Past Midnight - all hardcover, and Everything's Eventual last week. And Tuesday this week he scored Nightmares & Dreamscapes. So my collection just increase by 16 books (mostly hardcovers, excellent condition) in 14 days. YAY me!
Wow, spoiled much?Well, I've hit the jackpot over the past 2 weeks. KFF (Linda) sent me: The Bachman Books, Thinner, Cell, Desperation, The Regulators, The Dead Zone and Firestarter.

You have them all? Man, if only! But then the quest would be over. I like the hunt, actually going to the stores to browse. And I don't buy them new (not anymore). I used to wait anxiously for them to come out in mass market paperbacks, but those yellow and get bent out of shape, so I'd pass them on. Now I'm on a quest to own all hardcovers. It's a fun game! I also like to collect books I loved as a child - Judy Blume, Paul Zindel. And I love British Chic Lit.Wow, spoiled much?
I think I have all of his stories available in books now (apart from the baseball fan review one) - I don't have SK goes the movies because all of those stories are available in other collections. So I have just ordered 5 novel collection book of H.G Wells - The Time Machine, War of the worlds, The Invisible Man, The First Men In The Moon, & The Island of Dr Moreau. I was looking for just War of the Worlds, which started at £1.74 to about £4.50 for a used copy, and I saw the '5 great novels' book for £2.69 so it pretty much made sense. (Btw, I use Play.com and Amazon.co.uk so they are like online thrift stores.)
