"Too many books?" I believe the phrase you’re looking for is "not enough bookshelves".

yamsy:

all these recent dystopian novels are basically the same story with a different twist it’s like

  • 16/17 yr old girl
  • white
  • long hair
  • heterosexual
  • skinny
  • there is BOY
  • maybe even TWO
  • something bad happen
  • many bad
  • become symbol for REBELLION
  • CHOSEN ONE
  • DIFFERENT
  • FALL LOVE WIT BOY
  • SAVE WLROD
  • 2 more books w/ audibly similar titles

and I feel like I should hate them for this but I CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF THESE FUCKIN BOOKS

When I say I want to read the book before seeing the movie, I don’t want brownie points or bragging rights. I want to be able to read the book with my imagined world and idea of the characters without the movie’s influence at least once. After you see the movie there’s always some part of it that sticks in your head for a long time and you lose the enjoyment of making it up yourself.

Thank. You. For. Saying. This.

i want to open a book store that is 24 hours and people can finally go out at like 2am and be like “i just finished the first book in the series i need the next one stat” or if people are just having a stressful night and want to be surrounded by books

My favorite part about this post is that someone understands that it’s calming to be surrounded by books

a book nightclub.

read responsibly.

Someone make this happen pls.

OMG YESSSSS! MAKE IT HAPPEN!

This is a book store called El Ateneo in Buenos Aires, Argentina! You can have coffee while sitting on the stage. One of my favorite places in my city.

It’s a BOOKSTORE?!

Some old books have hidden messages on the edge of their pages.

This was done through a technique called “fore-edge painting,” which is an illustration that is hidden on the edge of the pages of the book. The technique allegedly dates back to the 1650s.

Don’t ever apologize to an author for buying something in paperback, or taking it out from a library (that’s what they’re there for. Use your library). Don’t apologize to this author for buying books second hand, or getting them from bookcrossing or borrowing a friend’s copy. What’s important to me is that people read the books and enjoy them, and that, at some point in there, the book was bought by someone. And that people who like things, tell other people. The most important thing is that people read…

Buying books is immensely comforting. Maybe I won’t read them immediately, but they make me feel so much better whenever I’m sad and blue. Just their presence, it’s like having more to look forward to.

I have a love affair with hardcovers. They’re elegant and sleek and sometimes when you take off the sleeve there’s a surprise on the cover. But then other times I really love paperbacks because they’re so casual and cool like they won’t take it personal if you fold over a corner. And then there’s ebooks which are like epitome of convenience and I can hold a library in the palm of my hand. I just really love books

On the episode of Supernatural that was directed by Misha Collins, Crowley referenced a children’s book that I read to my pre k students and it made me happy.
