Books On The To-Read Pile by pwinn.
Sometimes the fiction piles up, and sometimes the non-fiction. Right now, this stack of mostly non-fiction awaits, and I read non-fiction a bit more slowly than the fiction, so it might take me a while

This represents approximately one-tenth of the books on this particular set of shelves, but admittedly, that's where 90% of my books are found.

That makes this about 9% of your books. Fear my mighty maths skills!

Also, that Jack the Ripper book kinda sticks out amidst all the christianity.

Food Politics, IIRC, is a lefty political book. Three of the nineteen books have to do with race in one way or another. "The Puritan Family" is devoted to their lifestyle, not their religion, and... Oh, never mind.

Yeah, this stack happens to be remarkably heavy on books related to Christianity. Worse, I stacked them in front of a section that has a few more books related to Christianity.

I noticed the seeming imbalance when tagging the picture, which is why I tagged the Anne Rice books over on the left. :-)

Wait a minute -- eight out of nineteen? That's not even half!

Food Politics looks interesting, and... ain't nothing wrong with "lefty political books." ;)

I *still* haven't read that particular one, so I can't say for sure, but there is certainly nothing wrong with the concept of a lefty political book. Individual examples, however, vary widely.
