Here is the start of this week, I switched this Stacking the Shelves around, we'll see how it works. I put the newer books first and the older ones at the back. I want to see if this will draw more attention or interest. Either way, I'm happy with where the segment is at. Further, I put myself on a budget again, I can only buy so many books a month now.
