Here is a list of the books I have in my bookcases along with my little rating scheme. I rated them on how well they held my interest and just because a book may have a low rating does not me it's a bad book, I just found it hard to get through - except for "Great Apes", that book was BAD. If a book has blanks next to it that just means I haven't read it or don't know how to rate it. As I get time I will link all titles. Also, an (E) next to the author means that they were the editor and the book is a compilation.

	I have GOT to get some sleep!
	Okay, one more chapter...
	Time for bed...
	Isn't there something on TV?
	No, no, color in THIS book.
