Topical Classification of Fiction using MDS

I have started a new quirky hobby to keep me tied to my computer for the winter. I am classifying the fiction I read by topic using MDS.

Now, fiction is not generally classified by topic for a number of good reasons. One in particular is that good fiction tends to be about many topics not just one. So these numbers are quirky and unlikely to be too useful. But I really like classification and I've basically finished the non-fiction, so this is what I'm doing.

I'll be posting numbers for newly read material here (at least for a while, I'm terrible about keeping up with logs like this). I'm also doing some retrospective classification of older fiction reads. If you want to see all my fiction numbers, search my catalog for the keyword "Melvil" and then put the books in order by Comments. Except for places where I goofed that should give you the numbers in MDS order.

Feel free to comment, offer alternative numbers, set up your own list, etc.
