My copy of “The Picture of Dorian Gray”. All the green tabs are passages I find particularly beautiful/dark/intriguing. Im running out of sticky notes…
What my day has consisted of.
No wonder I have no friends. Clearly I am too cool for social interaction.
Went into Chapters today and there were a shitload of books on sale. Managed to pick these five after walking about for an hour. Now I don’t know where to begin.
Also, I want to buy more!
My 1946 copy of Ulysses by James Joyce,
previously owned by my late grandmother. Turns out it’s my great-grandmother’s copy.It smells so incredible. And it’s a fantastic book, if you haven’t read it.
I found a book on the ground at the bus stop a few blocks past my house (I got off the bus late).
(Yes, that is the sleeve of my dinosaur hoodie.)
I have never heard of this book or this author, but Penguin Classics has never done me wrong before.
The last time I ended up with a new book through serendipitous means was during my first official job at a grocery store, when I was given a copy of The Broom of the System since I couldn’t accept monetary tips.I’m very curious to sit and read this and see what it’s about. I really wish whoever had lost it had left some information in it so it could be returned to them, but nobody ever does that with books. I will try to take really good care of it, though.
Felt the need to buy more books..
