bookshelf speakers


I know that bookshelf speakers are not meant to be actually placed in a bookshelf, but I can I do? I only have room for a pair in a long bookshelf. It is actually more a ear level (sitting) bar with some books on it. No room for stands. I would like some help from you guys to shortlist a few speakers that would serve my needs. Again, the place for the speakers is a shelf about 50cm wide and therefore there is some room for a placement away from the wall. There are not other shelves on top of it. All suggestions are welcome. At this point I still don't have an expected budget, which I will define as soon as I have shortlisted the speakers.

Thanks for your help.

No budget, no ancillary equipment, no musical styles given....... Some very general rules for bookshelf speakers actually placed iin a bookshelf:

sealed cabinets are good, no ports to deal with

if the speaker is ported then of course they must be front ports.

Focal comes to mind for decent monitors with front ports.
