Jeez Brian, nice collection!!!! Also nice to see you take nice care of your paperbacks (the spines are in new shape, unlike finding books where the spines are creased).
I only discovered your channel with the top 10 autors video and I found so many books I would want to read there. It would be awsome if you would do something like a Top 20 favorite novels of all time. And of course, I added Forgeting moon to my TBR
I have recently discovered your channel-- I love your passion and you are an inspiration-- I'm really glad to see such a diverse appreciation for words. Thank you for what you do!
For years I read almost only historical fiction, you had most of my favorite authors in your collection. I am going to name a few that I did not see, Leon Uris, Colleen McCollough, Margaret George, Michael and Jeff Shaara, and Robert Graves. Also a good non fiction book you might like is Down the Great Unknown by Edward Dolnick. It is about John Wesley Powell's 1869 journey down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon. Love your library, sense of humor, and channel. Keep up the good work.
You know, i tried two Jeffrey Archer books and...didn't get halfway through either. Cain and Able, and the first book in his newest series about the detective. Someday I might re-try him
Do you have I, Claudius series by Robert Graves ? The BBC in the early 1970s made a tv series based on it. Rumor has it that there is a curse involved with this title and the filming of it.
You've got some really good stuff! Envious of a number of these, I have to admit (always some series you miss out on or declined to buy back in the day, that you now want to have in hardcover, lol). Though, I'm curious if you've got boxes of mass markets hidden away, because 80% of your books (very roughly) are the big name authors; there are so many more good books/authors out there. Are you able to control the urge to buy loads of other books/series/authors? Do you just put blinders on when you go in a bookstore and shop only for the names you love?
how long do you keep your books till you dump them or donate them?, if you where to donate them and if all the charity shops were closed? like they doing some here in the uk, what would you do with books you didn`t whant anymore?
