Kind of a vulnerable confession, but I think one thing I love about collecting books for my home library is that they’re really the only things that are just mine. My family isn’t interested in them, nobody touches them. They stay where I put them. I can’t say that about anything else, really.

As is a disinterest in books.
The impulse shopper needs an outlet and ownership!
I have one good reader in the 🏠
But I was so distressed by the thought of them just getting thrown into a skip when I die that I put a provision in my will that they be donated to regional libraries, and allocated the money to transport them.
