Books Bought/Read

In an homage to, or perhaps just copying, Nick Hornby's Book "The Polysyllabic Spree" I decided to keep track of the books i've bought and the one's I've read. These are different lists because not all the books I buy will I read right away. Some are destined to be shelved indefinitely, some are for reference, and some I just won't get around to in that calendar month. Additionally, not all the books I read do I buy in that month. I may have purchased them in the past, borrowed them from a friend, or checked them out from the library.

For the month of July this is the list:
