5,000 Titles Listed!!!!

That may not seem like a lot, considering some people have more than that in their own library. But when you factor in scanning, sizing and listing, it's a lot of work. It's only about 1/4 of my inventory and about 1/2 of what will eventually be listed.

I don't think there are any databases that have photos of every cover ever printed, so most of these I've had to scan myself and you can see from previous blog posts how some titles have numerous different covers.

Review “Duncan’s Diary: Birth of a Serial Killer” by Duncan Moron

I could have read this book in a day at one sitting. Being a fan of
Criminal Minds and CSI type programs, it was nice to have a book that
went further than the stale, rote, listing of the “profiles” of serial
killers through facts about their lives backgr...ounds.
This book
really gets inside the mind of the killer, listing how he thinks and how
his feelings in regards to those “facts” motivate him towards his
behaviors.
Interspersed with a scathing rhetoric with the state of
life in middle class America, especially interpersonal relationships,
you can almost understand “why.”

Vance Cover differences

Here's three different covers of the same novel. As previously posted, I'm currently listing Jack Vance novels.

I just got in a lot of over 50 of his books and will be cataloging and listing them soon.

Graphic Novels/HATTERDAY

Today is HATTERDAY. Open 9-5 rather than 10-8 today due to a commitment this evening.

I've listed a lot of Graphic Novels in the last couple of days, mainly Spider Man and Star Wars but others as well. Take a look when you get a chance.
