STOPI read the 7 habits & also the 8th habit. What is that ultimate fake book all about? Very interesting. My mom has and has had hundreds of books. Thanks for sharing books. We all are libraries.
Steven Covey is a very good author. I like his logic.
The ultimate Fake book is chords and melody line of hundreds of songs. I use it to play my sax. Someone can join in if they play guitar or know chords on the piano. A very cheap way to get hundreds of songs...
You're welcome.
We should turn all those "man caves" back into libraries and the world would be a better place!
Yeah, it would, except my husband is a bibliophile AND has a man cave, but I'd kill him if he put the books in with his mechanics, or the mechanics in with the books...
I have the 2 volume official Ford Service manuals + the official electrical & schematics book for my Ford pickup. They are out in the garage...
Ha. We just chucked a Peugot one...
Quite the collection. I'm afraid my bookshelf doesn't have as many rows. :)
I'm not even sure where the books are that I read as a youth. Must be with my parents if they weren't thrown out. Checked out a lot from the library, too.
I haven't read the Rabbi Cahn book about the Shemitah, but I have read The Harbinger. Incredible, fascinating and pretty eerie really, if any of it is true.
He's a messianic jew, too, so that makes him standout, I think.
Most of what I have to read are novels, with one or two non-fiction books thrown in. My wife has a bunch of cookbooks. Nothing on electricity, though or homesteading, which I actually should look into more. :)
The wife and I are bookhounds. We do a lot of thrift store shopping. One of our favorite things to do when we travel...
Read this book and saw the movie...
Yes, it really makes you think!
This is an interesting and a cool post! If I get some time, I would love to show off the books in my library too.
Thanks @cyber.explorer! I look forward to your post!
putting it together now. :-)

Congrats @cyber.explorer you are contestant #2!
thanks, nice to meet you as well.
There are a few books here but nothing worthy of calling a library .. The books are not mine .. I rarely read.
I do have about 2000 DVD's.
They say you are ... the movies you watch ...
I don't have a huge library but I do have a few books. Here they are! :)

Two favorite topics are languages and science fiction.

OOOOh - I love science fiction. I didn't post about my sci fi books - my post was getting too long and arduous!! My Mum also has a biggg sci fi shelf. I'm fussy with teh quality of the writing, though!
