About My Library
Our library is completely entered; if we own it, it's on here. Particular strengths throughout the history of philosophy, Russian literature, children's literature, and the philosophy, history, and science of biology and physics.

RATINGS: I've finally decided to start rating my books, mostly as a guide for myself as to what I've read and what I haven't. For all books, 0 stars means unread. Other than that:

Philosophy: Five stars means I consider the book an essential work by an essential philosopher; every philosopher should have read it, and laypeople should probably be familiar with it too. Four stars is an important or significant work, or one that I've used quite a bit and really enjoy. Three stars is something I'd never consider getting rid of. Two stars is decent (probably was required reading at some point), and one star is something I feel obligated to keep but don't like at all. If you're surprised by some work of philosophy's being missing, you've probably stumbled into something that I've got as a PDF, which I'm doing more and more these days.

Fiction: Here it's basically one-to-five based on how much I enjoyed reading a particular work. Three stars is the lowest rating that I'll give a book that I didn't like but is important for some reason that I don't fully understand.
