neuromancer was a required read for one of my classes and as a result i remember nothing from it
will be fun actually interacting with it
if my library has a physical copy i’ll cry tears of a joy man
just realised why people borrow books from the library
presumably they read so much that it would cost them far too much to buy every book they wanted to read
i hate gen z
for me personally i tend to have a lot of stuff i wanna read but don’t feel like ordering shit off amazon
ergo i just use my library
I mean I just buy them on the very rare occasion I want to read a book
i do need to convert one of my rooms into an actual like victorian era study
shitd be peak
libraries can be used to save money for now but they were around before the internet. people didnt have internet to discover books. the library was the internet of books, thats all the selection they have
and i suppose book stores
when I was a kid i’d read ~3 hours a night, I ended up reading so fast my parents would stop letting me buy books so I had to reread.
I kinda get it now, looking back I realllyyyy racked up those amazon purchases (it was a kindle)
I genuinely gave James Dashner HUNDREDS i bought EVERY book he wrote and read them all multiple times
libby my beloved
God knows how I’m literate with how little novels I’ve actually read
Maybe two or three?
I read so much when I was younger, a lot less nowadays but I want to get back into it.
I do… read, like I read forum posts and I read the financial times but I don’t read real ass books as much as id like to
YOU WILL READ THE BOOKS
YOU WILL ANALYZE THEIR THEMES
YOU WILL DISCUSS YOUR THOUGHTS
TRILLIONS MUST READ
most the books i owned were hand me downs or for Christmas as a kid the Library was a godsend given i had issues with sleep
only fantasy/scifi/etc really has that grip on me
commercial awareness
