When I look at the shelves, I do think it’s pretty awesome. I tackled all of those books, I think to myself. It’s a visual reminder of the distance I traveled. But on the other hand, since I was told selling them was out of the question, each book is filled with a muti-color array of highlighting works of art, my name on the edges of the papers. While there have been the essential reference books, the drug guide, my Lewis, et al. med-surge books, and for me, my Wong’s Essentials of Pediatrics book and clinical guide, there are some books that never measured up, like our Understanding Pathophysiology text, which managed to be longer than most, and somehow only contain a brief paragraph about anything that was essential to our class. There are definitely a few books that I won’t be using anymore, but it seems that their highlighted flaws and now-outdated editions will forever keep them a part of my own professional library.
