I did something similar to what you describe at my old condo. I used 1x12 for everything, no plywood. I used a dado to rip a slot 1/4" deep to stick the shelves into. On a 10' wall I used 5 vertical boards so each shelf was 2 1/2 feet long. 4 feet seems too long, especially for something heavy like books. I did not care about adjustability since the shelves were to hold my comic book collection so all the shelves were equal height.
