Title: my god it's all gone horribly horribly wrong
Post by: Eric P on July 12, 2008, 10:47:09 PM
I am trying to organize my books and i am defeated.

i've been trying to sort some aside to donate to soldiers but then i realize that they probably have enough troubles without my giving them Susan Jacobi's The Age of American Unreason along with sci-fi books so horrible that i won't even finish them.

I need like five more book cases but i don't have any room for them.


argh.

How many books do you own?

Because I have lived about two kilometers from a central library for the past twenty years, I've never felt the need to buy a lot of books. So I only have about 200.

i used to be like that, but then i started to get into books which my library didn't have

plus i worked for a year and a half right next to two books stores and most of my weekends with friends were spent in great used book stores.

and i don't really have a lot of books.  i just don't have a lot of space.

Send them books about zombies and Shogun.

to my understand what soldiers want is mindless escapist fare, which i unfortunately don't have a lot of.  or at least not that i'm willing to part with.

Well, awhile back I sent an original copy of Shogun to Iraq and I got a pretty nice letter back. As for zombies, everybody likes zombies.



shogun is an awesome book, so i could understand why.

All we want is you to pay back your debt.
