I read it in high school and liked it ok, but the real game changer for me was a day in the life of ivan denisovich.  I loved that book when I was 15.

You guys mean 'bookcase', right?

Yes! Though a nice long bookshelf would do me fine for the moment, as well.

I went the "get rid of books" route. I whittled down my pretty big collection to my favorite authors, and also to books that would paint the most agreeable light to visiting ladies (example: I hated The Awakening, but I sure as hell left it on the antique bookcase in clear view of the couch next to a couple Jane Austens and a copy of Fear of Flying, because I'm sleazy like that)

It would be cool if we all lived more horizontally. Bet we'd be fitter too.

Ha ha! That's what I do for a living - it's hard to stop sometimes.
