Book Shelf Tour (Finally)

I cleaned my room! I finally did it! And, now I am going to give you guys a bookshelf tour as I have been promising for ages. I don't have one or two large bookshelves like a lot of the readers I see on here. I have one shelf that doubles as a desk, some shelves near my bed(that are half filled with other gear like sketchbooks and an ipod dock), some shelves in my cupboard, a shelf near the door and a skinny bookshelf near my cupboard. Not all of the unread stuff is in my TBR pile. To make this easier I will use itallics for the unread stuff an bold favourites.

THE ADULT SECTION:

This shelf is the one that doubles as a desk. It's organised by genre/category. The top shelf is classics, the second shelf is historical fiction (books written in chronological order are on the right and the books that switch between past/present tense are on the left), the left side of the bottom shelf are books set mainly in present tense or books that don't go back far enough to be considered historical, And the books on the right side of the bottom shelf are adult fantasy/Magical Realism.

^Here is a picture of the left side of the adult shelf.

-'The Complete Novels of Jane Austen' by Jane Austen (Which I am half way through), 'Little Women', 'Good Wives' and 'Little Men' Bind-up by Louisa May Alcott, 'Shirley' by Charlotte Bronte, 'An Education' by Lynn Barber, 'A Portrait of a Lady' by Henry James, 'A Little Princess' by Frances Hodgson Burnett (I know it's a children's classic, but I wanted to group all of my classics together), 'The Secret Garden' by Frances Hodgson Burnett (Which I've read, but can't remember), 'Black Beauty' by Anna Sewell, 'The Scarlet Letter' by Nathaniel Hawthorne, 'Much Ado About Nothing'by William Shakespeare, 'The Hobbit'by J.R.R Tolkien, 'To Kill A Mockingbird' by Harper Lee.
