1) Total number of books owned?
OK, here's how i figure. i have 31 books on an average shelf. i have 9.5 shelves. i also have about 7 boxes in the closet/storage of non-circulations. jesamin's got a few of mine, but i think i've got a few of hers too. Estimated total: 450-500. This is assuming that coloring books and journals don't count

1) Total number of books owned?

Four six-foot bookcases and one four-footer, full. Using your average of 31 books per shelf, 24 shelves, that's 744 books. Or so.

2) The last book I bought?

Quark XPress 6 Visual Quickstart Guide. (I know, that's no fun, but it's the truth.)

3) The last book I read?

Hmmmmmmmmm I'm not sure.

4) 5 books that mean a lot to me?

Heinlein, Stranger in a Strange Land
Bach, Illusions
L M Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

More Heinlein. Let's go with Time Enough for Love.
hmmmmmmmmm.
More Bach. How about One, that was a good book.

There ya go!
