Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Scola, that is awesome.
My books are separated into: plays, anthologies of plays, books about theater, screenplays, books about movies, fiction (with a subdivide of cyberpunk/Adams/Gaiman/Pratchett), humor, spirituality (those are shelved next to each other), comics, history/sociology/biography, art/design.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You don't have Scott Pilgrim's Finest Hour ? Also, that is totally cool.
My books are not very well organized. My comics are organized by title.

Art Crawl!!!
My books, cds, etc are currently in no order. It's sad. I used to have them alphabetized in each shelf and had kind of a rough sort of which book went in which shelf - generally by size. I have a couple of shelves that can only work with mass market paperbacks and some books that are tall enough, etc that they can only nr placed on particular shelves. But, currently, it's complete book anarchy.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
What I like to do is fiction by author and non-fiction by broad topic (I like to have religion and physics close together, for example), but I have been buying books a lot more rapidly than I've been organizing them and the system has totally broken down. So, piles.

My books are grouped into comics, fiction, and I guess "other" (non-fiction, poetry, anthologies, textbooks), and then they're in order by author/title.
Once upon a time I did organize more by genre or subject, but I had considerably fewer books in those days, and plenty of shelf space. I do still clump all the Sherlockian books together because it seems silly not to, though. And I guess I may do the same with the Faction Paradox books when I finish reading them, actually.
DVDs are broken into movies & TV shows, mostly for space reasons, and then sorted by title. With the CDs I still have, I think soundtracks & anything with multiple artists is on one shelf by title; everything else is artist/title.
