Last updated 26 October 2008 when I used Delicious Library for a time but it was very tedious, especially with the large numbers of books, so I’ve since moved to Google Books where you can see part of my library (fiction, more or less — though Google Books inexplicably refused to import about 100.). Note that it’s more trouble than it’s worth to try and locate the true edition, so it might show a newer printing when I have an older, or be softcover when I have hardcover (or vice versa). Not all have been read, and I’ve been selling and giving them away; about 120 went in a yard sale in fall of 2008 and another 120 or so went to a used bookstore in the north end of town.

Next to add: auto/biographies, multi-author compilations, history/psych./nature, how-to, word play, cookbooks, the Great Irish Book Collection, and What’s on the Mantle and in the Little Recessed Bookcase. And the music and computer books. And the art books. I think that’s all. Stay tuned.

There are still many to read, to sell, to give away.

Here’s what I’ve read lately:

Better World Books are good people. Buy, sell. Books are never thrown away. Funds for charity. Good prices. Good service.
