Will's Library

So I spent most of today moving my bookshelves, desks, and tables. I am feeling sick, but not too bad and I had wanted to do this to make more room. In the process, I thought 'oh, why not catalog what books you have?' it seemed like a good idea at the time. That started about 4 hours ago. I have less than I thought, but I'll remedy this at some point...;) I have more computer books at work that are mine and some humor ones as well (Dilbert). Otehrwise, I think I got most of them...

I am a little disturbed about what names kept cropping up and a number of books I would have to say are from previous times' tastes, but that's life...

There's a lot more SF in there than I remebered and very little science, which is distressing. Ah well. Enjoy! If you care...
