Does anyone here stack their books horizontally instead of vertically?

Yes. I have no shelves, so I just have books piled on the floor. 500 or so. It's a fucking mess

this post reaches autismal levels of stupidity

>>9097515
Why on earth don't you have bookshelves?

>>9097550
Because I spend my money on books. Also, I don't have people over, so I don't much care about neatly displaying them

That's inefficient.

Not if I can help it. Mostly I always donated my books so others could learn, especially since most of mine were cs and it dates quite quickly.
I imagine most of your books you'll never read. They'll only clutter your place that is a presentation of your cluttered, disorganized mind and life.

It took me 1 year to read 'How to read a book'

>>9097509
Always. You preserve em better.

>nah, that's cracking their spines.

If you don't break the spine it's like you didn't even read the book.

>collecting paperbacks

No. I don't want to play fucking Jenga every time I need to pick out a book.

>not having a dedicated book room where you can just throw books without worrying about autistic things like order

Yes. It's a better use of space, but unfortunately it looks like shit.

>It's impossible to break the spines on hardcover books.

The only advantage I see to stacking your books is that it's easier to read the titles. This doesn't seem to be worth any of the other drawbacks of stacking.
