Let's see your bookshelves
« on: August 27, 2016, 01:17:12 PM »
So while I've been out and about doing hoodrat things with my infidel friends here in Afghanistan, I often think of things I want to do before I die. Things like building a computer, buying a house somewhere, learning a different language. But for some reason, most of all, I want a bookcase full of books that I've read and books that I'll soon read.

Learning to read for me was like a light switch to a different world turned on, and until I hit about middle school I couldn't put books down. Something around then killed it for me though, and I've only read a few books since then. But for some reason, out all that nonsense, I want a bookcase full of books.

So, with this odd desire on my mind, what have you guys collected and amassed within the frame of your lives? pics or it didn't happen.

Also, 200 of the 350 audiobooks in my Audible library:

Audiobooks are awesome because you can go through them while driving (well, civilian driving, anyway), eating, etc.

Here are most of mine from a previous thread. Gotta start looking for some more bookshelves, I don't ever plan on stopping and saying "that's enough books". I tried to organize them by non-fiction/biographies on the left, fiction/auto-biographies on the right.

I'm currently about two-thirds through "For Whom the Bell Tolls" by Ernest Hemingway, just starting to really pick up in the action.
