Yikes. What an awful thread.
Don't forget the shelves full of 'romantasy'. God, I miss my university library - shelves full of great classics.
>>25187163>You know, those who read.Those who buy new books at any rate.I dont buy brand new books very often, when I do its online because Barnes and noble rarely has what im looking for. They shrunk the history section significantly so now it is hitler, the British royal family and pirates mostly. Anyway whats in stock makes sense, since it sells, I cant imagine that many people are going in to buy xenophon
>>25187121Giga Stacies keeping bookstores alive so I can walk in and out with a five buck paperback classic. >gigastacey, you consumed 40 dollar hardcover Asian American sloppa for my sake. Thank you
>>25187634It's hilarious how American has been in this constant Magical Negro moment for twenty years now.

I stopped going to bookshops because they never restock the nonfiction section. Wanted to go through the entire Byung-Chul Han's bibliography, but every time a new book of his comes out, they put like 3 copies on one of those benches in front of the entrance, they last a week or so and then "You gotta order the book, anon, we don't keep him in stock!"At least my public library has them.>>25187188Those have absurd titles with extremely long subtitles (usually with millenial humor) that summarize the content of the book.https://youtube.com/shorts/dFNP4XSG7The weirdly poetic titles is what YA authors use when they switch to Adult fiction (or Wattpad authors writing their first traditionally published novel).
>>25187163>those who readNah you just like fast food, oink oink piggy
>>25187121Chris Hedges has the best epic titles in this style
>>25187628>They shrunk the history section significantly so now it is hitler, the British royal family and pirates mostly.fuck man.what country?
>>25187812>Nah you just like fast food, oink oink piggyYes, Barnes and Nobles feeds the soul of the ideal Woman.
>>25187832United States. You'd think after revolting we wouldnt care about the British royal family, but that is not the case I guess
