What I Have on My Shelf

As a child, I was never that motiviated to read. Retrospectively, that was a direct consequence of my addiction to video games, television, and the like. But now that I've made a conscious effort to extract those distractions from my day-to-day, I'm finding reading to be far more enjoyable.

I've organized the books that I have into rough categories based on topic. Books accompanied by a link have my review, thoughts, or related essays written about them. As a warning, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS if you follow those links.
