Books on a Shelf - Not the Usual List of Books

Books are an eclectic addition to the shelf. With a momentary longing to see something new, we make our purchase and intend to read that book. Most we do read. Some we never get to. Some we buy for the pictures. Still, these represent who we are at the moment of purchase and create a fascinating history of how we change.
