Books I've Read
You can learn a great deal about a person's core personality by the ordered list of books they've read, so here's mine. I keep a section of my diary where I write these down, so it's mostly accurate.
It includes only books I've actually finished. DNF books are stored in another section of my diary.
Textbooks and references, which I don't 'finish' in the traditional sense, are not recorded here. I have not yet developed a theory of recorded media which can accurately handle the idea of a partially-referenced book at different time periods.. some kind of referene log theory will need to be built..
