Holiday Break Reading Challenge Activity #7: Busting Bookshelves

For this activity, I must show you all a picture of my bookshelf...well here it is!

No, these are not all of my books, but these are most of them. As far as my system goes, I try to organize my books, but I am not very good at it. I will try to explain my "organization" by each shelf:

Top Shelf-

• signed books
  
• ARCs
  
• books to review
  
• Twilight

Second Shelf-

• YA in the back
  
• recently bought and have not read in the pile in the front

Middle Shelf-

• YA in the back
  
• books I traded for using PaperBack Swap in the pile to the left (haven't read them yet)
  
• borrowed books are in the pile on the right (haven't read those either)
  

Fourth Shelf-

• Adult books in the back
• Pile to the left are books I bought, but have not read
• Stack to the right are more books I still need to read

Last Shelf-

• In the back are all of my animal books from books I read as a child to books about horse health
• Both stacks are books I have not read yet

My bookshelf is a little out of control. I plan on going through all of my books soon and finding new homes for the ones I do not want anymore. I also want to organize it better, but I do not know how I can. Any suggestions?
