Ok, so I own Gravity's Rainbow AND A Gravity's Rainbow Companion.

Do I put those books next to each other, or do I just organize it by author as usual?

>> No.1179661

next to each other, so they can feel each other at night

Why would you separate one from one's companion? That's terribly cruel.

Organize by book title. Put them next to each other.

But then Gravity's Rainbow would be next to Great Gatsby or some shit and A Gravity's Rainbow companion would be next to Anna Karenina or some shit.

Well said. Thanks.

My books aren't organized at all, but I know where all of them are.

Just let them lie where they fall, you should be able to remember where you put it.

you only have about fifty books, does it really matter?
