I have always treasured printed books. I own many, they are treasure. Today’s online information is more inaccurate than any Hollywood movie.
I thought about donating or purging books as we are scaling down, but having second thoughts. I think I will throw out other things and keep my books.
You can purchase out of print and used books through thriftbooks.com. Just bought Orwells Animal Farm and 1984 To read again. Also Sun Zu…. For my husband as well as Bible as History and a history of the Etruscans - both Werner Keller.
I buy children’s books for the grands at half to quarter price of new. Build up your library. My grandkids love their library….three shelf bookcase of their books.
I remember science fiction years ago would imagine a world where the printed word was held in reverence for rebuilding after a post apocalyptic event.
Are we there yet?
