Lucky Book 500!!

I've been working on cataloging the library as time and energy allows.  Let's be blunt...there's no such thing as enough shelving or enough space.  I have most of my shelves 2 or 3 rows full of books.  It's really difficult to remember off the top of my head what I have and what I don't.  I have a separate bookcase to keep 'incoming' books so that they don't get lost in the library, but if someone wants to borrow something to read...well, it's not easy!  My hope is that by cataloging them, people can tell me ahead of time what they're looking for and then I'll have time to run through and find it.  Of course, this is a temporary solution until I'm able to magically create more space to shelve books in my dream way. 

This has been a really interesting experience for me.  I've found quite a few books that I didn't know I had.  I rediscovered books that I love and had forgotten about.  I've discovered several books that don't actually 'exist' anymore.  I have the book, but according to the internet, it's no longer valid.  Since I've only been cataloging hard copies, physical books, I've gotten to hold each book lovingly in my hands and then re-shelve it. 

I'm only halfway through my second bookcase, but I'm super excited to realize that I'm about to catalog my 500th book!  That doesn't sound like a lot...but it's a milestone!  So I'm sharing it with you!  I have 499 books cataloged.  All I have to do is grab another stack and then see what the book on the top is and we'll know who the winning book is!  Ready?!  Me too!  I'm so excited!


Damaged by Marquitz and Long!  I loved this book!  I pre-ordered it so that I'd have it as soon as it was available.  It was a bloody good time!  Musicians sell they're souls to the devil in exchange for fame...but what happens when they want out???  If you enjoy horror, you should really check this one out.  I'm really glad that it happened to be my 500th book.  Thanks, Tims!!
