I too was led here by the conspicuous tag 'irretrievably wet.' To lose so many books must've been painful... I'm sorry for your loss.
Sorry to hear about the flooding, but glad to know you didn't think one of my favorite novels (Powers' The Gold-Bug Variations) was 'irretrievably wet.' (I will have to use that phrase to describe a book someday, though, I think. You seem to be taking your loss in good stride, though!

No need to apologize for looking at the blog--that's what it's there for!
Is your tag "irretrievably wet" an indication of an environmental disaster or is it a comment on the content of the book itself?
