Got a whole LOT of books.. which should I keep?

Found an ad on craigslist for a lot of books, bought them. I made a list of what was in the lot, but what books would you suggest that I read? I am probably going to eBay what I certainly will not use (snake books, iguana books, and the extra books that don't fit), and the rest are going on my book shelf for future reference.

A lot of the books with chameleon information in it still list panthers as Chamaeleo pardalis. :D

This is the list:

I would keep them all.
Why don't you sell what you don't want on e-bay?

Hehe. :) It might not work too well though since I have a low reputation thingy number.
 
wow you have a small library. I would keep them all if i were you. Did you get a good deal on them?

Yeah, I'm actually surprised at what I got them for. I've already had a couple people PM me about the books, hehe.
