this is both a catalog of my personal library (on top) and the page that links to all of the book reviews (on the bottom). this will all get merged into one list as my library fills out. any list of books i could conceivably compile will always be a subset of the books i've read. there will always be books missing from this list.

book list (dated to jan 12, 2006):
book list
a list of your books online? why?i am obsessive compulsive. i organize everything. this is more for my purposes to keep track of things because i also lend these out and sometimes lose track of things only to go looking for something years later and realize i haven't spoken to the guy that has it in three years....
as all of my files are connected to this website, which is essentially an extended and forever in process acadamic "blog" that will eventually represent my entire life's work once my entire life has been completed, it made sense to connect it to the actual website.
as far as your benefit goes.....i am adamant about the circulation of electronic texts. we now have the means to circulate any and all literature free of charge and we should do so. depending on availability, i may just type some of these things up for you. if you can, however, go to the fucking library.....then go to the fucking library. i will only reproduce that which is long out of print and difficult to find; don't ask me unless it is a last resort. if it is a last resort, however, i will almost certainly help you out.
also note that i do not claim that all of these books are worth reading. some of them are downright terrible.
nonetheless, here we are, every book that i own, alphabetically by author, of course.

site bibliography (dated to dec 23, 2005):
here you go......ideally i'd like all of these linked to electronic sources; i ejaculate in my pants when i think about the day when every book ever written will be available at one's fingertips for free. it'll happen....one day....
anyways...these are a bunch of books i've sourced. they are in no order besides chronologically; however, this in itself will break it up into "sections" of research.

- track down missing university texts
- don't forget to try to remember books read as a kd
- look for textbooks from high school. seriously.
- look for books read in class in grade school (there weren't many) and in high school.
- items i identified as lost in post-move documents (2013):
- straffin game theory text was lent to dad and never came back. i don't think it's what he thought it was (i think he was looking for gambling strategy). it's basic algebra, but conceptually interesting.
- i'm fairly sure that pynchon's gravity's rainbow was stolen
- i think the machiavelli was stolen by the same person
- the communist manifesto standalone
- stephen king, IT
- brothers karamazov
- scarlet letter
- heart of darkness
- grapes of wrath
i must have a list in my 2007 insurance application.
