The Library

I thought I would compile all of my book, video, and game reviews into one place – The Library.

I was trying to figure out how to organize all the books I have reviewed, and I decided that using the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) would be best like real libraries do, as it would/should group books of like topics together (except that some topics do get split up into different areas). For those items that I do not know the exact DDC, I have placed it in what I believe to be the correct DDC neighborhood and added xx to it.
