Hey I have the same Marriage Prep book! Except I took one class and then promptly dropped it because I didn't want to spend a semester looking at the smug engaged couples.
This is fantastic, absolutely fantastic. Carry on, Mr. Braddy.

Number of friends who want to make a witty, snarky remark but change their mind because they just got done doing a similar thing with their movie/television collection: 1
Wow, it's amazing that you had the patience to do this. I have absolutely no idea how many books I own...probably well over five or six hundred by now (esp. considering that I've only ever sold back two of my textbooks ever). Impressive shelf though! You've inspired me to want to do a similar post someday...when I have all my books in one place, that is...
I should mention that this post only includes the books on my shelf - anything currently in storage or on loan to someone may have been left off the list.
