Usually, bookcases are less deep than this gap. Do you want the bookcase to be 340mm deep?
It may look better to have one that's shallower, i.e. while you'd still be able to see that the chimney breasts are different, it might be less obvious?
(You may need the extra depth to have books in there two deep, of course.)

Hive mind:
I have two chimney breats in the front room with a 1750mm gap between them which I would like ot turn into a big bookcase.
Issue is the breasts are different depths. Not sure why.
Ideally would like shelves to finish -20mm of flush from both sides but this isn't possible because the gap would be 20mm one side and 80mm the other side. What to do?
