>About to spend 400€ on my next batch of books
At this rate, being a crack addict might soon become a more economical hobby.
>>
books are free, you idiotic slut
>>
>>25268495
Yeah, free to read. I don't care about reading them. I just want them to look pretty on my shelf.
>>
>>25268495
I can't read them on a screen, my brain just goes into ADHD mode if I'm looking at one.
>>
>>25268525
based foid

>>25268553
Visit your local library then you fucking moron, do I need to hold your hand through everything
>>
>>25268561
There isn't any library I can go to where I live. I have to get all my books delivered by courier.
>>
>>25268568
Do you live in a cabin in the middle of a national park? Even bumfuck nowherevilles have libraries, anon. You'll have to get your fat stinking ass out of the house, maybe even (gasp!) ask other people, but who knows? That might do you some good.
>>
>>25268579
ted kaczynski had a local library he'd visit often, this fucking fatass
>>
>>25268553
get an ereader. It'll be cheaper than 400€
>>
>>25268579
I'm not doing any of that gay shit you talking.
>>
>>25268491
That's a good investment. Crack is NOT a more economical hobby, reputedly (I did not try it). Unironically and réálly not meant meanly: if you study them at the kitchentop you might gain something from studying them quicker than were you to read them in bed or sitting down.
>>
Please talk me out of spending $600 on 4 books from folio society.
>>
>>25270279
Holy shit, I just opened this thread to say I was recently on the verge of spending $200 on one Folio Society book but wasn't able to justify it

Maybe just buy one, otherwise you'll feel nauseous when they arrive and the regret hits you
>>
I kind of miss Megan posters and Megan.
>>
i feel u op im tryna limit myself to less than 100 bucks on the princeton sale but idk so much good shit
>>
>>25270293
Princeton sale does not really change from year to year, same books every year other than some flash in the pan tittles that will never see a second printing. If the book has been in print for awhile, you will be able to get it at next year's sale.
>>
>>25270301
yeah i keep putting off homer's chapman and that goethe compendium, also a new finance textbook i wanted didn't get the discount yet, but some new titles dropped in princeton classics.
>>
>>25270313
>homer's chapman
chapman's homer, oof. i just worked out.
>>
>>25270313
>homer's chapman and that goethe compendium,
Those are cheap and plentiful used, my local used bookstore always has a few copies of them for next to nothing.
>>
>>25268491
Until you are sucking sick for another hard copy you are in the clear.
>>
>>25270200
I usually read on a tablet, used to read on a computer but it can become tiring for the eyes.
Sometimes I buy books because I enjoy the feeling of paper and smelling the pages occasionally.
>>
>>25270279
What's there to lose, really? The 600 come and go, you'll make them soon enough, but the books will be a thing of beauty forever
>>
>>25270279
>>25270285
Fess up, which ones?

IMO getting something ancient like Herodotus as a deluxe-edition book seems silly, but all respectable picks

I actually like his podcast but I have a kneejerk derision for normalfag mainstream historiography that isn't "eradicate all niggers"-coded
