Bookshelf

Reading books is important, and thus, welcome to my bookshelf. I've enjoyed most of these books, especially the fiction works. Some of the nonfiction stuff I could have skipped, but I'll still learn something from them. But what I mostly learn from nonfiction is that in most cases, I'd should almost always have chosen scholarly works to read instead.
