The Bookshelf

(Sorry for two posts, the list wouldn't fit in one post by itself as is)
You enter into an ancient, weathered, brick building. The roof looms high ahead and the floor is a mixture of wood and stone, the wood creaks underfoot and most of the stone cracked. A few beams of light breach the darkness through the ragged window shades. An elderly man beckons you inside, gesturing to a sign which reads 'Silence, Please!' Books shelves reach from the floor to the roof, as if the bookshelves them selves held up the building. Lining the books shelves are many newer and pristine tomes as well as novels of old, whose bindings have become tattered and worn...
Well, being fairly new to the site I wanted to start in the forum dedicated to one of my most favorite things! BOOKS! And I have so much I can talk about on the books I love and read and rather than flooding a forum of different books, I figured I would make a 'bookshelf' on the site with a list of my novels headed by author's name and alphabetized by then book's name. Any questions or comments on the books I read? Anything you want to discuss? Talk to me! ALSO! Post books you have! List some or all! I invested several hours into this, so I hope it was worth it. Though, not all my books are listed I plan to add on some more soon!

FatherG, is your house filled with so many books you can't even walk in it?
Check out my shelfari account. I think we should compare lists.

O.o *whistles long and low* Dang, that's... Organized. I'd love to list my books, but I'm afraid I'll have to do a bit of sorting. Mine have a tenancy to become intermingled with my mother's book hoard. The ones that belong to me alone and the ones she's just put in my room will have to be separated first.

Lol. Thank you Rocklobster, I will be sure to look into that, and it hit me. I should have made a third post dedicated to my slowly growing manga collection! Lol. I am excited and hope this can kick off rather well, I am a bibliophile and can ramble on the subjects of books until your ears fall off.

C.S.Lewis, Frank. E. Peretti, and Shakespear! Ah, you are a person after my own heart! But no Hamlet?! Such a pitty....
