The saddest thing is that as much as I would like to get me a copy, and browse through them on a rainy day while sipping tea... I have nowhere to put them, due to my apartment being filled with books already. I have books under my bed... books in the sock drawer, books in the living room, books inside boxes... I wish I had a bigger place so I could put more books... not long ago people used to have these studio-like places with entire walls filled with books... the economics of today are quite restrictive in those terms...
- galaxyLogic 2y agoI had lots of technical books and I fancied this idea that book is like a computer it gives us information, so having many books is like having many computers. But then I had to move and I realized I really didn't need those books only some of them had information that was hard to find on the internet like Windows shell-programming. So I decided to get rid of most of those books before moving. But it was not easy to get rid of them and nobody wanted to buy them either.
- ghaff 2y agoBooks can fill a near-infinite amount of space. I have tons of space where I could stash books if I wanted to. But I've gotten pretty hard-nosed about donating books I'm not realistically going to read or re-read to my local library book sale. It helps that I just buy a lot of newer fiction in particular in digital format because it lets me read it wherever I happen to be.
