Once you've bought them, they're yours, no one can take them (yet, he's probably working on that!) and if you borrow from the Library (if you still have one with books in it) you can read it repeatedly! No one stops you, no one checks. And you can renew the borrowing!! Books are awesome!!
I'm on page 250ish of a 700+ page Moby Dick.
I've been on that same page since last December. Lol
But I'm trying to force myself to read it. I promised my brother-in-law I'd finish it. He passed away in March, so I need to fulfill my promise.
The time I waste on this phone could be time reading.
Yes sireeee!! I am finishing 6 days off and read 6 books from my TBR list. Only about 50 to go before I let myself buy more. Or maybe I will tomorrow-who really knows??
Especially math books, but philosophy, literature, poetry, history, chess, politics, art, economics, computing, science, … are all joyous too, except when I have to move.
Not all books are good, books written by white cis men should not be considered. They are part of an oppressive system and reading a white cis book is LITERALLY participating in oppression.
read black, read trans. Fight the system
Absolutely agree!
Books truly shine under a blue sky lol
Anyone have recommendations with powerful life lessons?
I’m on the hunt for those hidden gems—the kind that stick with you for life.
I want to uncover some hidden gems
In addition to Books -- know what's *really* good?
Removing from power and prosecuting the most profoundly corrupt, illiberal wannabe dictator in American history; putting the Republican party into a giant metal tube and launching the tube into the sun -- *that's* good.
An Ohio man is under investigation for allegedly checking out 100 books related to Jewish history, African-American history, and LGBTQ+ topics, from the Cuyahoga County Public Library in Beachwood, Ohio, and then burning them.

But, in my case they usually nod off on their heroin cruise and I’m left talking to myself.

Books do not have to be "good"to be worthwhile. Learning to love reading will lead readers to the better books, given time.
Thinking for yourself
Being able to communicate your own thoughts using your own brain
Having original ideas
Comfort zones
