We just completed a light home renovation to turn our living room into a study. My wife started sorting all our books today for all the new built-ins. 
I pre-ordered *A Place for All My Books* months ago. It arrived today. 
Perfection.
Game in progress with neoprene mats and custom book tiles.
Borrowing something from Tabletop Inc to make the perfect setup
Printed book cover stickers and applied then every book tile (purchased two extra sets). Then I slapped some glossy varnish overtop to protect the stickers from scratching.
It has been suggested that I may be going overboard in replacing the first player token in my copy of A Place For All My Books.

Overview

A Place for All My Books is a puzzley book gathering, sorting, and organizing game in which players arrange stacks of books in different rooms of their apartment as personal projects. When done, they can admire their accomplishments and gain their rewards – not least of which is renewed energy, which they can then spend to head out into the village - to pick up more books!

Over nine rounds, players visit locations and gather books to complete objectives and earn Victory Points. The player with the most Victory Points wins.

The organizational puzzles are easy to accomplish, with the challenge being how many of them you can accomplish all at once to optimize each "admire" action.

A Place for All My Books includes a solo mode in which you must beat the game's rival: Penelope Eveready, an untiring extrovert who seems to be grabbing all the books you had wanted.
