Matte Elsbernd web publisher. writer. photographer. 23 years experience.
In high school I started keeping track of all the books I finished. Once you start, you sort of feel funny not continuing the list. Now I feel bad I didn't start the list sooner. So, here it is, no longer a list on binder paper, but rather in a database and all that fancy jazz. Perhaps it'll be of some interest to you - getting a sense for my interests. But regardless, it's sort of a legacy thing for me.
the 176 books read by matte elsbernd (since 1988) - brought to you today by the letter B and the numeral 170.
