Here are my paperbacks. I don't have room anywhere else which is why they are four deep on the bottom shelf of this cabinet. The hardcovers are my dads and they will make it to the book cases once he reads them. And the bone at the top I found in the desert near our house. I'm not sure what animal it comes from but I'm pretty sure it's not human.

Is that a set of C.S. Lewis Chronicles of Narnia paperbacks? i think I had the same set.

[Teriw]

That is one deep ass cabinate.

Very cool, Joe. My Grandmother's HCs (mostly mysteries and historical romances and novels) are 2 deep on two 5 shelf bookcases in my basement!

The chronicles of Narnia are paperbacks. I had a set when I was little and gave them to a friend and I had to buy them again when I moved.

I don't think it's that deep, maybe 12-15 inches. I think the 4 deep paperbacks make seem bigger then it is.

Wow thats a lot.

Very nice Joe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't know if anyone here is a cubs fan but this is a pretty cool book. It would be better if there was a world series win or two in there.

[peteOcha]

I guess thats why its "Our Dream"... cause you can keep on dreaming about that World Series!

Just kidding of course, having grown up in NJ, I'm a yankees fan. But I'm actually hoping to head out to a cubs game when I'm out in Chicago over the summer.

[Joe315]

Definitely do that. Wrigley has a great atmosphere, even if the Cubs lose, which if the first game is anything to go off will be a lot this year. I went to a couple Yankees games and had a great time. The first time I saw a very large drunk guy being tackled by 3 police offers and then had the balls to say "there's nothing to see here" as he was being picked up off the ground with his pants half off. The second time was the All Star game in 2008. That was a cool experience except that we decided to leave a tad early to beat the traffic only to have the game go 15 innings. And we got to see Josh Hamilton put on a show during the HR derby.

[peteOcha]

Well, I'm going for sure! Haven't been to a game in 9 years!!

Nice pb collection.

[Joe315]

Thanks. I've been slowly upgrading them to hardcovers if they are available. I'm thinking about buying the Preston/child books in hc but if CD continues to release them I'll just go with those. They're much nicer plus the original trade editions were made poorly so I don't know if it worth getting the ones I don't already have.
