He is the dog

I'm not the type to spend a lot on a book. But I am the type to spend a lot to get an obscene amount of books. I went to a thrift store a week ago and only now have had the time to unpack what I bought.

It was a haul unexpected.

These are the paper bags that tend to tear when overfilled, as they are. I had to carry these like small children from my car to my home.

It really was like tetris trying to fit them all into these bags in the first place.

Not an argument

Total spent: $100.99

If I went to Barnes and Noble I'd maybe get 8 books for that if I was being thrifty.

That's all I've got. I moved into my new place a couple months ago and have been slowly getting furniture, and so while it's not /shelf/ I hope it counts. I just got a good job to where I can actually afford to buy books, and so I've been trying to build up a collection that I'll be happy to delve into.

I know pictures are no substitute for experience. But I hope at least you anons are encouraged by the fact that great books can be bought cheaply and locally if you take the time to sift through things at your local thrift store.

>2 copies of Frankenstein
just tell me why?

I give away books after I've read them. I bought two copies because I read Frankenstein a while ago and hope to give them away to some pleb friends in the hope that they read them. I also bought 3 copies of East of Eden a while ago. Gave one away recently.

I envy you for having friends who read
pretty good taste, considering you got them from barnes and noblesand are gonna give some away

that's a pretty cool against the day cover, never seen it before.
holy shit, how cheap are american books?

Blesssed image, love you user, I want that copy of against the day.

Blessed post, honestly the way that I usually get my book is by this thing called small library where the neighbors put up book in a box for people to pick up or by just going begging people for books. Too many books to buy imo

tharrnks

Lmao

Holy shit are prices like this normal in the US? In Germany a book is at least like 10€

Gas

Same here in Spain except our salaries are easily 30% lower than those of germans...

Mirin hard those 2$ books, I'd buy literally dozens of them if I could.

Pop culture isn't a personality.

dude, smoking is bad for you.

Same in Italy, if you don't want to buy overused illegible books

lmao

Go to re-read or iberlibro (web), rana tonta

1. Neither is that
2. It doesn't have to be, it's simply a statement
3. You're gay.

Books are never a personality

Do thrift stores accept debit? Im about to go there right after the gym, but i have no cash.

I dont use a bookshelf, all my books are stacked on the floor haphazardly around my room

You want to try that again, you dumbass?

Your fuckhead-level of grammar paralyzed me.

holy shit lol

Have you ever bought books in second hand shops? It may not be as cheap as in the US, but it's nowhere near "every book is at least 10€".
Go to any Oxfam or to a flea market und you'll find more than enough cheap and interesting books. And in every bigger city there should be at least one used book store that has prices like these.

And how do you know that?

'I have AIDS but I am happy' is my favorite Harlan Ellison short story.

libgen. Literally everything is on there.

Get yourself an ereader and Calibre to put the shit on the ereader. I heard Kindle is hardest to deal with, but you can still crack it with calibre and get non-amazon books on there.

It might just be easier to get a different e-reader like the Kobo.

very nice presentation user

What did you think of "OIL!"

nice trips

Still less tax than europe

Germany has used book stores

Oh cool another tripfag to filter

but I have an important message for you from the future
niger balls lol

He's saying that second-hand books cost ten euro. In my country they cost the equivilant of ten american money.

Saw the movie and didn't read the book yet. I did read the first few pages just to make sure it was worth buying, and it seemed interesting enough.

first post worst post
