My wife wanted to make our house look more "homey" so she took all my duplicate books and put them in 2 different book cases. Problem is, the bookcase ate them, and now we can't even open the bookcase to get them back. Anyone else seen this issue on console?

Book cases are messed up after the last patch. We will have to wait for a fix.

Yeah, happened to me in Markarth. The armor stand ate my armor as well and I cannot use the weapon plaques. I has since abandoned that house.

Yup, have this problem on PC as well. I literally had 200 books I was lugging around, figured I'd take a vacation of adventuring and stay at home with my Housecarl Lydia (if i could only get her to wear a bards outfit) and read some books. The one book case let me put 4 books on it before saying it was full and it ate the rest. The other bookcase ate all the books I put on it. I can't access either of them now. I can't even open teh weapons racks to put weapons on them.

Yep I have the same problem...Lost a lot of books.

Well, they're still there, just not accessable. I hope the next patch will make them available again.

Oh and btw...it seems to be fine in newly purchased pre-patch houses. I bought the house in Markarth an hour ago and book-case / armor stand work fine.
