Happy March!!! As we get closer to Spring - I'm in denial that it's going to snow again tomorrow :( - we get closer to our move...I hope! As such, my house is now a maze of boxes, and so far, the majority of the boxes are all book boxes. It's so sad to see my bookshelves empty, and I don't really relish the idea of unpacking all these boxes, but I am using the time to decide how I want to organize them. How do you organize your books?
