Spurred by Kevin and his related blog entry at eggsandjuice, I will attempt to list my referential library. This doesn't quite include manga volumes and individual issues of comics I have collected over the years... perhaps that will be another post.

I certainly wish I had a library as diverse as my fellow American Refugee and best friend, E. Dubois. Yeah, there are some odd titles in my catalogue. I actually kept some textbooks that were course materials in college, which is helpful for mental snacking. Every once in a while, I open books that exclusively display words.
