A ton of Tolkien books, but they're in their own little shrine (hehe...love saying that word...shrine...shrine....shrine...).

Not a lot on my bookshelf in my room but enough that I can't remember them all...I have several copies of National Geographic, a thesarus, a Worst Case Scenario, and that is all I can remember. Sadly I only own one Tolkien book which is Fellowship of the Ring and have only about four Harry Potter ones. I lost two to my insane mother who was going about in an anti-God purge for about three months. I just borrow books from the library. Plus half of my books are strewn around on my desk so techincally they aren't in my bookshelf. But I do have like four bookshelves around the house but don't ask me to tell what they are. I'll bore you and myself to death.

I was bored the other day so I catalouged by 260-something novels I own :p and I wont post it here, its too long and would probably bore you all to death. My books are a collection of books I've bought, I've been given, I've found cheaply at OP shops or in the library rejects, or that belonged to my family (eg, my grandmother)...

I started listing my favourites, but that proved to be dangerous, too. Too long! So if you have any desire to see what's on my bookshelf, click HERE...

At home I'm pretty sure me and my sister have well over 1000 books between us. However my book self here in NZ is depressingly tiny because I could only bring a small amount of stuff with me on the plane. I did bring way more books than anyone else I've talked to though :P What I've got is:

Sophie's World
Little Women
Good Wives
When you Want to Walk on Water you've Got to Get out the Boat
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
The Blessing
Don't Tell Alfred
The Memory Box
The Favoured Child
Critical Thinking
Practical Ethics
Dictionary of Philosophy
Social Justice
The Student Vegetarian cookbook
Guide to New Zealand

It's just as well that there's a library where I'm staying.
