I just weeded a couple hundred fiction books.  Guess how that makes me feel?

SAD.

But it has to be done.

Ack!  The polka dots on my new journal style are not showing up.  They are housed on photobucket.  Curse you, work filter!  Must upload the dots to LJ, I guess.

I bought a copy of Cygnet by Patricia McKillip at the used bookstore.  How is it?  Should I read it next?

I'm still not sure about the red but thought I'd give it another try. Have the brown/blue saved just in case.

Weeding is difficult. I was able to keep all the books by authors I know and like, such as the Garfield ones, but only because I have the luxury of a large enough facility to hold them. I worry how many others I got rid of only because I don't know enough about the older authors, or I can't predict who will become more well-read after writing subsequent books. I'm pretty rushed for time this year, but I was able to go online and read about some before deciding if they should go. Many got a reprieve.

I'm dreading the day I might still be at this library and have to weed the fiction I bought years before. That will be doubly painful. At least now I'm weeding someone else's choices.
