Sorting yet more books!

Okay, so the fiction took a lot longer to get through. Part of it was the quantity of fiction compared to non-fiction; part of it was the location of the bookshelves. I had to move two racks of clothes, a computer table, a drawing table, and a rocking chair to get at them. Maneuvering those plus a pair of folding tables was... complicated.

End result: about 230 fiction titles to read. At a book a week, that's about 4.5 years. (Compared with about 2 years for the non-fiction.)

Discovered: we're missing one book out of the middle of the Blue Adept series. (Book... 4? How?) I also need to get the 3rd book of one of the Robin Hobb trilogies.

Other than laundry and dishes, not much else got done this weekend.

Reading for the coming week (hopefully):
Non-fiction: The Guns of August (started in D.C. back in June)
Fiction: Magic Kingdom for Sale (Sold!)
Textbook: Some book on logic whose title I don't remember at the moment
Journal: Reference & User Services Quarterly, Summer 2010 issue

My folks will be here in two weeks, so most of the rest of what I'll be doing outside work will probably be cleaning.
