Fucking steve jobs/moot or whoever rotates images like this. Jesus fuck
>>7929239
Okay, I laughed.
>>7929239
This image makes my brain hurt.
Why would you stack your books on top of each other like that? Won't it be annoying to pull out a book from the bottom of the pile?
What's the second book from the bottom?
>>7929309
Anon are you okay?
>>7929239
>not having the full /lit/ trilogy

Haha I'll lay off for a bit. I think we've just been having a lot of bookshelf threads lately.

You should keep your money in a less conspicuous place, dude.

Kinda memey I know.

How much glue did it take to accomplish this?

How fucking autistic can you be to post the image upside down?
I'm assuming that you plug your iPhone into the computer and import the images onto the computer. Can't you at least take two fucking seconds to open the image in Windows Image Viewer and fucking rotate it then close the image? Is that so fucking hard?

Fuck everything else he's ever written though.

Hello, Andrew Shulman.
>>7929708
What Brothers Karamazov is that?
>>7929982
It actually says "Andrew Shulman SUCKS!" and it was on the book when I got it.
>>7929333
Ulysses I think.
>>7929900
Easy. The metallic part in the middle of the shelf actually produces a magnetic field that pushes the books up and makes them levitate.

ewww is that a large-print Dune?
>>7931340
That's normal size mate.
>>7931345
I've got a paperback copy, same cover, that is half the size with the standard page count. I swear the one time I saw the thicker copy in a store it was large-print.
>>7931347
Hey could be, I don't have my Dune copy on me, but I'm fairly certain it's the same edition as his, and I don't recall the print being notably large.
>>7931349
It's noticeably larger because it has a huge appendix added onto it.
>>7929349
laughed
>>7929994
I actually have no idea, and I've been looking around online. It's a fucking mystery edition. I'm beginning to wonder if I happened upon a really rare print of it.
>>7929843
whoops doublepost
thanks man. yeah its a shitty barnes and noble edition of the art of war, but its serviceable.

what value does one derive from it? i missed the YA phase desu and therefore am not familiar with young adult literature. I see /lit/ hate on it quite a bit. care to explain why?
>>7931164
math phd detected. are you doing algebraic geometry? that book is intense, ive heard. im currently finishing up the Guillemin and Pollack book. on way to econ phd tho

>Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Shit book. Terrible Mary Sue. Totally cliched. Written by a total cuck who thought he was James Bond or something.
If it weren't so overcast and rainy right now, I'd take a pic for the thread. I got another shelf filled. Only two more to go before I have a full five bookcases.
>>7931164
Of you've read it all you're surprisingly well rounded individual. Hats off to you m'anon

Well done, you let yourself get memed by /lit/. Pathetic.
>>7932243
holy fuck, this guy
from anthony bourdain to john barth's letters in less than a year
have you read any barth? you know that book is a sequel to five of his other books right? but i guess DOOD its BIG and POMO so how could you go wrong
What's /lit/ think of my children's lit shelf so far?
I just ordered a Pooh set and a complete Narnia one. I've been trying to find more of the ones I read as a kid, but hardcovers/board books seem so much more expensive now. I know my parents wouldn't have paid $10 new for stuff like Frog and Toad.
>>7933620

Also, where are the rest of the Harry Potter books? And how is Howl's Moving Castle book compared to the movie?
>>7933620
Lemony Snicket
Bartimaeus
>>7933620
You used to be able to get that stuff cheap from in-school book fairs. I really wish I hadn't spent those years wasting book fairs on Captain Underpants.
>>7933700
How's the quality/binding of those sandman hardcovers?
>>7933784
It's good. But I really should've just got the 6 volumes instead of the fuckhuge 2 tomes. That's probably what I'll do.
>>7933780
I loved those. My copy of a few of those were got from Scholastic book fairs, like Artemis Fowl, the Moorchild, Edward Eager, Wrinkle in Time. I used to have a lot more, but only a few traveled with me away from home, and so, only a few are still around.
>>7933679
They're in boxes still. They take up too much shelf space, and I'm limited right now. I remember liking the film better, because it was more fantastic--who Howl really is in the novel is too mundane and brought me out of the setting.
>>7933620
missing this pomo masterpiece
somewhere between pale fire, house of leaves, and hitchiker's guide, with doodles in the margins of every page that like PG-rated R. Crumb scenes commenting on the text and fucking with the reader

Don't listen to the shitposters. Good shit, anon.
>>7929818
I second, that's a damn nice selection.
>>7931242
Sadly, To The Lighthouse is one of my favorite books, so I'm unwilling to part with it. The absence of a universal narrator in the book (except for during a brief interlude), complements the modernist themes of the book and is aesthetically pleasing af.
>>7932388
Sorry to disappoint, just an undergrad. Algebraic geometry is my favorite area of math - but I took just the first of a three part grad class offered at my school, so I've only read the first 3 chapters of Hartshorne. It's a really hard book. I find that Ravi Vakil's notes on algebraic geometry are just as comprehensive and offer a lot more intuition about schemes right away. How are you liking econ?
>>7932631
Thanks, it's given me a good sense of different literary and cultural movements. Law actually helped a surprising amount with that. Reading Milton right now. I'm currently trying to figure out what to do after I graduate college. Any advice for ways to support a generalist lifestyle? Would be fine taking odd, short-term jobs.
All you plebs don't know what a shelf of books really could be... Tomorrow Lit Will SEE A HUGE PERSONAL collection of literature ranging from history to science fiction, from Greek to french. Tomorrow will be the day that book collecting titans will rise up from their grave and boast on /lit the collection that they posses.
