Bookcase Credibility

June 1, 2020 By Linda K Sienkiewicz

Bookcases as personality indicators

If you are on Twitter, you must follow Bookcase Credibility @BCredibility for a hilarious, insightful review of people’s bookcases in light of the new reality of Zoom and at home conference calls.

I’m not sure who the owner of the account is, but they have 78.6K followers! They offer opinions on scanty shelves, sliding shelves, shelves full of toys but few books, stacked shelves, and even one poor woman who has no bookshelf, but you can see a photo of herself on the shelf behind her– “Freud would jump from his seat if shown this. Outwardly she needs no help but her unconscious dreams of a bookcase.”

They also make light of people who feature their own book(s) prominently on their shelf, as if to remind you their credibility.

The commentary is hilarious, whether or not you know the personalities.

And you, dear reader?

What might your bookcase say about you?

I bravely offer a shot of me with my bookcase for your appraisal.

Have you used Zoom? What’s in your background?
