Shouldn't books be sorted by ISBN? :-)

The correct method of sorting is by randomly assigning each book a unique identifier that only you are aware of and organizing by that.

It's like the Dewey decimal system but more creative.

That's just a "more steps" version of my method which is to jam it randomly onto the closest shelf wherever it fits.

This is my method as well. A few weeks ago I took out a book from a shelf because and then couldn't put it back even though it was on that shelf a few minutes ago.

I enjoy the Algorithms to Live By strategy of putting the most recently read book "first". So the left-most book on the shelf is the last book I read

Good book, I took the same idea from there too I think.
