Would you store your 📙 📗 📘 📕 this way?

The books look cluttered stacked that way.

That fireplace display is an affront to bibliophiles everywhere.

First thing I thought about was book burnings so no I wouldn't store my books that way, it's awful.

An empty wooden structure that could have served as shelves for books (made a bit taller) is placed above a fireplace stacked with books. This scene could have served as an interesting statement in a quirky Coen brothers' film.

No, I don’t think so. Looks strange.

This is absolutely pitiful! It looks like a nice home, so why in the world wouldn't the homeowners find something - anything - as a better way or place to store their books. It's also a beautiful fireplace that's unusable. And what's up with the 4 "shelves" above the fireplace that are empty? Just shaking my head!

No I like my books all facing the right direction with spines out so you can read the titles. If I had a non working fireplace I would put a grate in it and stack wood on it then add battery operated candles.
