I used to do property developing ( in England it was a GREAT way to make huge money tax free) and developed a really luxury home with a library...so to make it look good when it was time to sell it I called a secondhand bookstore and asked them for books..
"Which ones are you looking for"
"Well I need about 60 yds of them...doesn't matter what they are about..."

heheh.. mine are a mixture of fiction, non-fiction political books, and fantasy and sci-fi books. My father has all of the classics and medical texts, books on sailing\, and a bunch more. He has bookcases around the house. The most interesting aspect of his collection though is how he has placed two oversized books, The Rise and Fall of The Third Reich and The Holy Bible, right next to each other in the collection. People take a look at the Nazi symbol on the spine next to the word The Holy Bible and invariably most ask why they are next to each other. My dad just enjoys seeing the looks on peoples faces and how uncomfortable it makes some people feel. It makes for an interesting topic of discussion on the polar opposites of the books.

I had actually bought both the Star and the Sun on that date.
