Good choices. Which I say because I either own copies of many of these or have them on the mental wish list.
These days I try to control my compulsive book buying by limiting myself to what I need for Sunday School. Works pretty well.
Unfortunately DVDs are another mental classification, especially when I’m in the used DVD store. Sigh.

Well thank you. I like to think I have good taste in books :)

But never mind me. What did the wife think when you came hauling in this pile of books?

Thankfully she gratefully puts up with my addiction.

Woah! A good list, but wow, that’s a ton of books! I pretty much stick to books that are absolutely essential at the particular moment (for a class I’m in or a paper I’m writing). I’ve resigned myself to mostly working with books that I can get to review on my blog. That way, I shouldn’t get a book unless I’m really going to read it soon.

Nonsense! You can’t have enough books :)
