I vow to not be so shy with my shelving in the future.

In fact, some days, I go on little ‘face-it’ outings, where I hit every bookstore within a 10 mile radius.

Still, those we love must have nice placement, right?

There’s one store I love but I don’t move my books there, and it’s a shame, because the Supers are on the bottom shelf – you have to practically stand on your head to see them. (sigh) So, I don’t mess around there and move them – too obvious. (G)

I don’t know about other stores, but no one in ours would ever notice if an author moved his or her books, let alone take revenge on those who did. Customers move things around — oh, how they move things around — constantly, and books only get stripped when they’re damaged or when there isn’t any room. Our store, being inside a mall, doesn’t have a very large back room, so nothing gets moved back there after going out onto the floor except in extenuating circumstances. (Okay, I will admit it — occasionally some books get stripped when the bookseller in question doesn’t like an author, but never all of them.)
