books ah you bastards!
I went into a used book store once trying to sell off used books.
I was about to interstate move.
Books are heavy.
The store bought a ton of those books but the weird thing was, the girl at the counter asked me to tell her about the books, so I did, book by book, and then she said,
“Wait, have you read all these books?”
It is kind of weird to me anyone who works in a book store wouldn’t assume someone selling a used book has read the book.
I’m trying to give away books now. Books are heavy. They take up space. I can get them all on the iPad which is not heavy and does not take up space.
Here’s the problem.
I know TOO MANY AUTHORS.
All these damn books are signed.
I can’t give those away or sell them.

I feel the same way about my record albums. I haven’t owned a stereo in over 20 years and some of my albums are signed promos.
Those are even harder to store and cart around because they are hot/cold sensitive and also breakable. I weep for you.
Try a school or library. Keep reading – “open minds open books.”
