there is no possible way I could sit here and type every book I have at home. I'm going to open a used book store and have been saving all of my books since I started college five years ago and I have read every last one of them. awsome that you can name every book you have that's dedication. I once knew a lady who was in her 70's she kept three ring note books of every book she had ever read so she could read as many books as possible in her life.
Absolutely no way I could manage this, even the "casual fiction" would get out of hand, let alone the rest of the library. Let's just hit the high points by genre: sci-fi, fantasy, mystery, gemology, fine arts, Egyptology, animals & animal behavior, theatre, history, geography, cooking, herbology, gardening, reference books, and plenty of miscellaneous items. That doesn't even touch on my grandfather's library that's still crated up in my studio.
There are a lot of advantages of taking the 3-4 hours to type up some of your book inventory besides the sharing aspect here which I hope may spark an interest in a new subject to read about. You can notate when you read them and then in a couple of years read them again if you like. You have an insurance record along with a video if your place ever burns. You can go online and auction them if you want to. You can FIND them, lol. (without looking sideways at the binders) I started doing some magazines and stacking them in boxes stacked sideways listed left to right, if I feel like a Smithsonian read on the fly, dammut, I don't wanna be looking for them for a half hour. hahahaha peace y'all bookworm dingbats

interesting titles iffy, it's gonna take me a month of sundays to get all my books for sale on the book and music page at www.honorseed.com.........
Ouch, some long lists there. I started doing something like this, but I could never get enough will together to finish. I have a LOT of books. Though I've only had 18 years to collect them I read almost constantly. Mostly they're the only presents I get, so my collection has built quite steadily. Mostly fantasy and science-fiction. Ach, I hope to get a website going which'll allow me to catalouge my books. Soon after Christmas.
I's a light traveler, so all I have with me right now is some Vonnegut, some Kerouac, some Wolfe, some zen books (including the great Zen and the Art of Motorcycle maintanance), some Tolstoy, some Garcia Marquez, and 4 or 5 other random ones.
No way I could list all of my books. My DH keeps telling me we're gonna have to buy a separate house to keep them in. I have books stacked everywhere. Kitchen, garage bathroom, bedroom, attic, closets, everywhere. I love to read. (as if you couldn't tell)
I like this idea, it's nice to see what books others are reading. When I get in the mood, maybe tonight, I'll list the books I have
Here is what is on my desk, I haven't read all of them but they're there. also there are some comments on what i thought of the books. They are mostly paperback. Hardcovers are to bulky for my tastes. harder for me to read. Chuck Palahniuk He is an awesome writer. I love all his books. Fight Club - Chuck Palahniuk Great book. the first of his i read. Better than the Movie. Survivor - Chuck Palahniuk Another awesome Chuck P. book. Invisible Monsters - Chuck Palahniuk I just read this a couple weeks ago and it has become my favorite Chuck book. Choke - Chuck Palahniuk My other favorite Chuck book. Lullaby - Chuck Palahniuk It was good. I enjoyed it.

Saucerful Of Secrets: The Pink Floyd Oddessy - Nicholas Shaffner A Long Strange Trip - Dennis McNally Fool The World: the oral history of a band called Pixies - Josh Frank and Caryn Ganz Naked Lunch - William S. Burroughs Havent read all of it but it is crazy!!! 33 1/3 Series: Piper At The Gates Of Dawn: John Cavanagh Helter Skelter - Vincent Bugliosi and Curt Gentry This stuff fascinates me.

Salinger The Hound Of The Baskerville - Arthur Conan Doyle Brave New World - Aldous Huxley Hammer Of The Gods: The Led Zeppelin Saga - Stephen Davis The Bone Collector - Jeffery Deaver Alice's Adventures In Wonderland & Through The Looking Glass - Lewis Carroll This is one of the greatest storys of all time. Zodiac - Robert Graysmith Crazy stuff. He was never caught. and he was some what local to me. He killed people who went to the same college i go to!!! cant wait for the movie. One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest - Ken Kesey SUPERB BOOK!!!!!! READ THIS BOOK!!!! The Devil Rides Out - Dennis Wheatley A very good book from the 60's. Occult story. Catch-22 - Joseph Heller this is the book that is equal to M*A*S*H in war satires. No One Here Gets Out Alive - Jerry Hopkins and Danny Sugerman The doors/Jim Morrison Biography Slaughterhouse-Five - Kurt Vonnegut Great book. Animal Farm - George Orwell Fahrenheit 451 - Ray Bradbury Superb. SciFi isn't my thing but still awesome The Machineries of Joy - Ray Bradbury The Martian Chronicles - Ray Bradbury AWSOME!!!!! Red Dragon - Thomas Harris The greatest book of the series Silence Of The Lambs - Thomas Harris Great book but not as good as the movie Hannibal - Thomas Harris Book okay. better/different than the movie. but not as got as previous 2 thats what i have in my room. probably more elsewere but IDK - Jon
Ok, I've decided to make my list. Some probably won't be included because most of them are laying around my room and hard to find. The Days Run Away Like Wild Horses Over the Hills - Charles Bukowski The Elements of Style - Strunk/White/Kalman Honey For the Bears - Anthony Burgess A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess A Discourse on Inequality - Jean-Jacques Rousseau Big Fish - Daniel Wallace One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - Ken Kesey Harry Potter I-VI - JK Rowling Quidditch Through the Ages / Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them - (JK Rowling) The Bhagavad-Gita 1984 - George Orwell Animal Farm - George Orwell The Gay Science - Friedrich Nietzsche The Antichrist - Friedrich Nietzsche The Dhammapada Howl and Other Poems - Allen Ginsberg Visions of Cody - Jack Kerouac Big Sur - Jack Kerouac On the Road - Jack Kerouac The Dharma Bums - Jack Kerouac Mexico City Blues - Jack Kerouac Animal Liberation - Peter Singer A Midsummer Night's Dream - William Shakespeare Macbeth - William Shakespeare The Hobbit - JRR Tolkien That Was Then, This is Now - SE Hinton The Universe in a Nutshell - Stephen Hawking The Giver - Lois Lowry Of Mice and Men - John Steinbeck The Giving Tree - Shel Silverstein American Colonies: The Settling of North America - Alan Taylor Irish Folktales The Catcher in the Rye - JD Salinger Symbols of Tibetan Buddhism The Vision of the Buddha - Tom Lowenstein The Count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas Great Expectations - Charles Dickens A Tale of Two Cities - Charles Dickens The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test - Tom Wolfe Naked Lunch - William S Burroughs Ramayana - Retold by William Buck Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close - Jonathan Safran Foer Everything is Illuminated - Jonathan Safran Foer Brave New World/Brave New World Revisited - Aldous Huxley I'll probably just edit this as I get new books.
"On the road" by Kerouac "Fear and loathing on the campaign trail '72" by Thompson "The rum diary" by Thompson "The stranger" by Camus "Summer in Algiers" by Camus "A long way down" by Hornby "Otherwise Pandemonium" by Hornby "The hot kid" by Leonard "Tishomingo blues" by Leonard "Light my fire" by Manzarek "No-one here gets out alive" by Sugerman/Hopkins "Heaven and hell" by Huxley "The doors of perception" by Huxley "The mask of red death" by Poe "The gun seller" by Laurie "In watermelon sugar" by Brautigan "Stupid white men" by Moore "In cold blood" by Capote "Trout fishing in America" by Brautigan "The alchemist" by Coelho Of course, my parents have a huge collection of books but those are the ones I've bought myself. All very good
I don't read a lot of fiction, more political, philosophical, biographical, etc... here's the more important parts of my collection and the rest isn't worth much mention, just generic psych/philosophy/science... kinda small but it's an intimate collection: The Emperor Wears No Clothes/Jack Herer No One Here Gets Out Alive/Hopkins and Sugerman Rasta Heart: A Journey into One Love/Robert Roskind Animal Farm/George Orwell Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas/Hunter S.Thompson Lord of the Rings trilogy and Hobbit/Tolkien This Book Will Change Your Life/Benrik Age of Reason/Thomas Paine Adventures of Huckleberry Finn/Mark Twain Marley Legend/James Henke Catch a Fire/Timothy White Helter Skelter/Bugliosi and Gentry Dragons of Eden: Speculations on the evolution of human intelligence/Carl Sagan Communist Manifesto/Marx and Engels Walden/Henry David Thoreau Be Here Now/Baba Ram Dass ... anyways, these are the important ones. Each are important to me in their own way and I would suggest any to anybody.
