I'd like to zoom in on that bookshelf. I wonder what books are on it. All I can make out easily is Watchmen.

With examination I see "Infected," left self third from the top. I notice IT and The Stand on the left shelf second from the bottom. Must be the Stephen King shelf. Lots of sci-fi on the shelf above that. Textbooks in the shelf on the right...

Do you recognize any other books?

Top right shelf contains "Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell" (in black) and the Harry Potter series. Below that "The Rise of The Creative Class" (green). Middle left contains "America (The Book)" (red).

Fun exercise.

Third shelf, all the way to the right, "The More Than Complete Hitchhiker's Guide" -- which does not include Mostly Harmless, but IS leatherbound and DOES include slick gold-leafing.

The third shelf up on the right looks like SF paperbacks. I'm pretty sure that's Ender's game third from the right.

Same shelf Stephen King is Tom Clancy's "Executive Orders" (2nd from far left).
