Weird titles I've run across & put here to get them out of my head

 

Disappeared?



books & articles I have read
( WITH RATINGS )

I am now giving books I've read 3 ratings:
Hope (H): based initially on topic, title, author, publisher, blurbs, interviews, reviews, etc.,
Expectation (E): after a number of the above,
actual Rating (R) after having read it,
with each running from -4.0 to +5.0. (The extreme high & low ratings are, umm, extremely rare. It must be extremely bad to get a negative R. In a couple cases in the last couple years, books have gotten 2 different R ratings if large portions were rotten, but a couple small portions good.

  "In the shop window, you have promptly identified the cover with the title you were looking for.   Following this visual trail, you have forced your way through the shop past the thick barricade of Books You Haven't Read, which were frowning at you from the tables & shelves, trying to cow you.   But you know you must never allow yourself to be awed...   but then you are attacked by the infantry of   Books That If You Had More Than 1 Life You Would Certainly Also Read But Unfortunately Your Days Are Numbered...   you come up beneath the towers of the fortress, where other troops are holding out: the   Books You've Been Planning to Read For Ages, the   Books You've Been Hunting For Years Without Success, the   Books Dealing With Something You're Working On At The Moment, the   Books You Want To Own So They'll Be Handy Just In Case, the   Books You Could Put Aside To Maybe Read This Summer..." --- Italo Calvino 1979 _If On a Winter's Night a Traveler_ (quoted in David Shenk 1997 _Data Smog_ pg 26)
