A description will appear someday. I promise.

So what if it's hard to find books for a while?

I found this via Readerville:

In San Francisco, for this week only, a bookstore has allowed an artist to organize its inventory by color.

I will admit to being really, really tempted. And that coming from me, the Book Nazi, is really serious. It's just so gorgeous. Love it.

They have to re-alphabetize EVERYTHING when it's over. It'll be worse than a sort (opening a new bookstore).
I'm sorry, aparently I'm too much of a book-nazi. It just makes me cringe.
There is some humor in the "I'm looking for a book. I don't know the author, title, or what it's about. I think it's blue." 'question' I have gotten FREQUENTLY in all the bookstores I've worked in. I wouldn've loved to direct those customers to the Blue Section and watch them cry.

That reminds me very much of High Fidelity where Rob organizes his record collection not alphabetically, not chronologically, but autobiographically.
