My library is like the proverbial elephant. If I hang out away from the 
Sun on 4th floor, there are all sorts of biography books. If I sit in 
the capsule on third floor there are law books about the States. If I go 
to the second floor by the drop, there are graphical novels people just 
can't seem to put down.
