So much this. When I finally arranged my books by colour, I felt a burden lifting. No more worrying about genre categories or which books fitted together or what I was trying to “say” with arrangements - I could just focus on the soothing beauty of rainbow gradient shelves.
It has been 5 months now since I stopped using all social platforms. I found it good and necessary for my mental health. But with this, came the fact that I missed your weekly sharing of beautiful things you discovered and you used to post on your insta stories.
(I live in Romania and I am a bit financially challenged, so I can't afford paying subscriptions.)
But reading here, I found the article you shared about friendship in your 40s and being myself a freshman in this, I looooved reading it.
Thank you so much for sharing it here! You have no idea how I loved to see it and read it!
Btw, your book shelves look amazing in rainbow color! Hugs from far away! 🤗🤗
I just wanted to let you know that I looked at your website and I read some of your English posts and I liked thema. I live in Belgium and I have been to Romania twice and I still have some friends living there.
Hello from Ottawa! I actually ordered Lore's books from that shop. Handle with Care has especially encouraged me and I have suggested it to several friends.
I love rainbow! For me it’s functional- I remember covers more than titles, sometimes! And I love how it looks. I’m in 100% agreement with Lindsay-- and you ☺️
I love my home library’s rainbow shelves, too. I read mostly fiction and I could never find books alphabetically (sorry, writers!), but I always remember covers/colors. Even with 1,000ish books, I know where each book is located. Plus, it’s aesthetically pleasing. That matters to me.

Thank you for sharing, Lore. I appreciate it.

Thank you so much for reading my blog and for telling me that! 😇
It's important to encourage one another 😊
I just organized my fiction by color this week! It made me feel so happy. (Lots of blue...)
Love this.
I’m curious which used bookstore is your favourite in Ottawa? Wondering if it’s the same favourite of my husband. :)
Black Squirrel?
It’s funny that Black Squirrel is what came to my mind when you mentioned a used bookstore in Ottawa. Love that little store!

I tried to edit instead of posting twice! Handle with Care has especially encouraged me and I have suggested it to several friends.
Ah. He goes to Book Bazaar which is under the same ownership. He may now check out Black Squirrel. Thanks for your fast reply!
Oh we shall have to check that one out next time we're there!
