Librarians do it until the user loses interest!

Methinks I spy the Peabody Library in Baltimore! Second from the bottom. Worth your time. Serious book porn.

I'm reading this, Its about Templar Knights. I figured they left a secret decoder message in here where the grail is. Either that or I'll need to remember to drink my ovaltine.

Books stacked to the ceiling, what a delightful sight!

One of my favorite quotes of all time. And it always reminds me of Queersetti because he introduced me to it.

Do I need a First Edition three-volume set of one of the memoirs of one of Napoleon's Generals (in French), or two volumes of the Essays of Elia in the first complete edition?

But they are in great leatherbound editions and would look good. Would I read them? Elia? Probably not. I have paperback versions. The memoirs? Probably despite the early 19th Century French.

But I should be reducing my library, not increasing it.

Yes.

I have no first additions, or leather covered rare books. But of the few I have, I've read everyone, 4 or 5 times for some.

Sir, what you say is blasphemous and treasonous to this thread. Go apologize to your library now.

Not going to lie, the crayons made me smile. Pristine shelves are (usually) the sign of a book collector, not a reader. Right now I have a small guitar amp on one of mine because the music stand and guitar sit next to the shelf.

Yea aren't the crayons cool? They were once my daughters, but since she's grown I've claimed them. When I was a kid I could never get my grandmother to buy me a big box of them like that, so now 59 years later I've finally got one. They make me smile too each time I see them. The problem with crayons and me is I never learned to color inside the lines, but I have a lot of fun making a mess. Kinda' the story of my life.

It's why I use color pencils. When the adult coloring book phase started, my boyfriend at the time got me these colored pencils. Now I have several coloring books including a Game of Thrones one, a Disney Villains one, a Cursing Cats one, A Cursing Verse one, and a couple more. It's a good stress reliever. I mean, I love reading but sometimes I need a break from it.

Cool. For me, even with the sharpest pencil, I'd still not manage to stay in the lines. My hand shakes to much. A genetic condition. But I keep the crayons around because....

We have a coloring book squirreled away under or bed. We got it in 1975 when we went to a Red Skelton show for our 4th wedding anniversary. It's a 2' x 3' coloring book of line images copied from Red's clown paintings. Needless to say a crayon has never touched it's pages. I'm not good enough and my wife refuses to.

My reduced library is still 5,000 books with a turnover of about 100 books a month. My Kindle clone holds over 250,000 books mainly as .txt files. My oldest physical books are 16th and early 17th Century.

A good friend from university had the target of 52 books read in a year.
Due to family I no longer have the luxury of reading all day, but I've aimed for 12 a year over the last few.
I managed I6 last year.
Quite pleased with myself.

52 or 12/16 books a year?

I read more than 12 a week.
