Question for those with Kallax shelves from IKEA...
Obviously you cannot always fill an entire cube with books. I have a few cubes that have considerable free space. Does anyone use bookends/etc. to keep their books snug/from falling over?

“We have a saying, my people. Don’t kill if you can wound, don’t wound if you can subdue, don’t subdue if you can pacify, and don’t raise your hand at all until you’ve first extended it.”
I've often gotten the bug to shop for bookshelves. But I do have a walk in closet (with a door) with shelves that I've been storing books in so far, so then I think meh I'll just keep using that. Just need to trim my collection of 100s of TPBs to just the gems though to have a "true" bookcase worthy of perusing and running my fingers across the book spines
Yeah, I have 4 Kallax shelves in my house and they're all filled to the brim. There are even books stacked horizontally across the top of most cubes. I've been trying to purge as well the past month or so, but all I end up doing is finding something I missed (how? no idea!) and running off to buy it and fill in the gap. *eyeroll*.
I've actually had dreams about my place burning down and having to choose which books get saved...
Does anyone have the release date for the Official Handbook Of The Marvel Universe: Deluxe Edition? I know it is this month but when?
I had been wanting to do another purge for a while now, but kept telling myself everything I owned I wanted. I looked through my collection again and picked out 2 cubes worth of books I knew I was never going to read again. So out they go!
Next Tuesday the 9th.
Anyone purchase books from B&N recently?
I had to place an order with them for 2 trades since they seem to be OOP and IST & CGN do not have them in stock.
I have a few concerns...
1. Anyone ever have their orders canceled? Little nervous since they seem to be out of stock everywhere else.
2. Has their packaging gotten any better? I remember seeing posts here about receiving damaged packages from them, which equals damaged books.
Fantagraphics are reprinting Segar's Popeye! Not those 6 hardcover volumes, but in paperback and separating the Sunday strips from the dailies. The first volume of Sundays comes out later this year.
