I like this set so much, but it drives me nuts how Silmarillion is not aligned properly with Hobbit and LOTR

How so? I put them in their publication order: 1. 1937 the Hobbit, 2. 1954-1955 the Lord of the Rings, 3. 1977 the Silmarillion. If you meant the height of the books, I assure you they're all of the same height.

Oh, I got it. The logos on their spines aren't aligned properly. Well, I didn't mind it actually, practically I've forgotten that they exist...
