Card drafting games are games in which players pick cards from a limited subset, such as a common pool, to gain some advantage (immediate or longterm) or to assemble hands of cards that are used to meet objectives within the game.
Card Drafting
Tile Placement games feature placing a piece to score VPs, with the amount often based on adjacent pieces or pieces in the same group/cluster, and keying off non-spatial properties like color, "feature completion", cluster size etc.

Great little puzzle game that plays quickly. I love the card playing mechanism and how it forces you to give benefits to your neighbours. It makes this game work wonderfully with three players. While there is some luck involved in which objective cards come out and when the game manages to mitigate this luck a bit by giving you more chances to reshelve your books in the second half of the game, making it easier to score those late game objectives. The fact that multiple people can score the same objectives helps with this too. You are never locked out of a scoring opportunity, just because someone got there first. Also, the fact that every single book has its own unique title is awesome.

Takes the book sorting concept from Ex Libris, where the books now are individual tiles to be placed and moved around a book shelf (to appease various objectives that come out). Each turn players draft cards that not only determines what they get, but also what their immediate neighbour's get as well, so becomes a puzzle of trying to get the best for yourself without rewarding opponents too much. Game is fast, easy to get to the table and very enjoyable.

My wife, a middle school librarian, would probably feel that shelving books by color is actually a terrible way to organize a library. This is a whimsically themed abstract strategy game — reading all the different book titles as you place them on your board is an absolute delight! However, the game can become a bit of a double-solo game with limited player interaction. So make sure to read your books aloud!
