Ebooks are much more efficient. Just get over yourself and start pirating. Your costs will be cut by literally 100s of percentage points.

Same, except I don't buy more than I could reasonably read in a month or two. Still have many unread books sitting around, though

Prune your collection. Sell some at half price books, give some to friends and family, donate others. Only keep the books that spark joy.

>> No.13297432

Just full stop, really observe what you have so far and what you KNOW you will read. Sell, burn do whatever with the rest.

I know you're joking but there is something inherently wrong about destroying art, even if it's trash lowbrow literature. it's a very fascist thing to do.
