All bad, simply cause its not varied with enough non meme/pleb books, and if its not varied now i doubt it'll shape up.

can these consumerism threads please stop

I wish I had that Dune edition. Also the pristine-ness of your copy of Moby Dick makes me wish mine wasn't so beat up :(

Stumbled upon the best book sale in my life, because it was a surplus sale and the books were buried under children's toys.

So just post the random book pile that is on my desk,or assemble a new pile with the best books I have?

How can that copy of Dune be so large? What could that tome, besides Dune, possibly contain??

>>7985243
How is Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test? I've been wanting to read it for quite some time but haven't found a copy. Is it worth my time?

>>7985272
Seconded.

It is very good. Documents a strange time in the twentieth century.

I bought lots of copies from the same publishers, since they were dirt-cheap.

>>7989492
The Trial and the first half of Kafka's stories are incredible. You're in for a good time. And Pessl's Special Topics is so comfy and dear to my heart. Good stack, anon.

It was 1/3 of the price than the other editions. Plus, it's the ultimate book cover for checking 'em.

Last thing I read was the script for Hiroshima Mon Amour by Duras
Now I'm reading BK for the first time and I'm already loving it

>>7985243
You all say you're posting stacks of books, but all I see are duckfaces and selfies

that shit by bertrand russel is good

>>7990894
I buy cheap books all the time.They never fall apart.I don't know how others mamage to destroy copies of books just by normal reading.

Classic op Classic

>>7991017
B-B-But books that are leather bound that cost 20x the cheap price are better!
Lol, it's almost like they think they're getting a better book.

>>7991034

Retard

>>7991034
No,you misunderstood me.I value aestethics.
They are important.They get a better book,not in content,but in aestethics.
But when I just want to read something,I pick up the first edition I happen to come across.
I just don't understand how can a book can get almost disintegrated while you carry it around.Most /lit/izens seem to destroy their penguin books.

>>7990974
Nice!

No other recent purchases thread so I'll post this here.

How do you read in the dark?

>>7985243
Is electric kool-aid in any way related to Heaven's Gate?

>>7987551
How is ol Teddy K's book? He was a mathematical prodigy when he wasn't mailing bombs right?

>>7991746

/lit/ in the dark can be pretty comfy, but watch out for eye strain.

>>7990117
let me guess. you buy all of your books from thrift books or some shit and you read all of Nietzsche and Schopenhauer, maybe started reading Spinoza or Deleuze but it was way too abstract and boring so you gave up. You are actually 16 or 17 years old, and are thinking that you want to pursue psychology thinking that it will be a practical application of your intellectual interests. Reply if I should continue.

>>7992143
>>7990117
Sounds like you are projecting yourself onto some random person who reads Freud and Nietzsche

But that Lardner though.

>>7990974
