I searched the forum, and I don't see anything on this specific topic, but it's driving me nuts.
I love libraries and bookshelves, but I can't stand having books with their spines to the back of the bookshelf, which seems to be the common placement for them on new bookcases since Western Skyrim. I literally can't stand to use any of the beautiful new bookcases that have this flaw, because I don't want to waste furnishing slots putting books over the backward books.
The skyrim ones were particularly annoying, because even though they could be approached from either direction, about half of the books were backwards either way!
Couldn't we maybe have "X-type bookshelf, disorganized" and "X-type bookshelf, orderly"?
