Holy shit, I thought reading was supposed to make people smart and appeal to smart people. Is this really the best our society can do in the name of books and literature?

Also p.s. I love you guys.

WHERE DO I GO TO BUY DECENT BOOKS

[Anonymous No.16280625]

>>16280577
That's why I exclusively go to second-hand book stores. I regularly pick up classics for less than €5. Recently went to a second-hand bookstore in Denmark, selection was mediocre, too expensive, but they had a locked up back section of just William Burroughs books. He visited this bookstore once and I guess they got him to sign a few stacks. Always enjoyable to browse through a proper bookstore. luv u too anon

this, second-hand bookstores can be pretty good, and they can also have some pretty rare books. usually the owners are also nice to talk to
avoid large franchise bookstores. no harm done if you want to order a special edition of a famous classic (say, Goethe or Dostevksy), but I find that small independent bookstores and second-hand bookstores are the way to go
