He was tipped for the Democratic nomination in 2016 and now everyone hates him, what happened?

Yeah I do, I have two collections. The first one are "favorites" of mine, 60 books aprox, a lot of world and Chilean classics, mainly poetry and novels, but I have some history books too.
The second one are "old" books, books I don't really like anymore. I've never taken the time to count how many books are there, but probably more than 100.

Here's a chilean translation of King Lear I really like. Can post photos of rare books if you ask me.

i used to buy books from used book stores all the time but stopped a couple years ago. now i have 3 shelves of mostly unread books. its nice to have selection in your own home

[I love Harry Potter No.13584262]

I only buy used books. I can often find some gems for a dollar at second hand stores. New books are so much fucking money. $20 for a novel? That's like 10 cups of coffee I could be drinking

I don't like this meme. These characters and themes offered a lot of beauty, inspiration, morality (for a pagan culture,) and generally pointed upwards to something greater than ourselves. Capeshit is the opposite
