Books Shay Got off the Swap Trolly

This is a list of books i got at two times in my life. The first was when I was around 20, the local library had a swap cart where you took a book and left one. That cart introduced me to Kerouac, Vonnegut and lots of others. Then, much more recently, two of those book kiosks on stands have turned up in my neighborhood. So, this list has old and new but not much in between! I have read the great majority of these. How about you? There's something old, something new, lots of borrowed...not sure about blue!
