I sometimes thought my father thought he could't die while he still had books on his pending pile (a stab at immortality I seem to be replicating)... so, it was strangely touching to see Tom Gauld has had similar thoughts.

@ChrisMayLA6 @bookstodon I recently came across a really nice pov, that a book collection is like a carefully curated wine collection. You buy many books so you have the right one to read at the right time. Also, it supports authors

@ChrisMayLA6 @bookstodon That was phrased nicely :)

@christineburns @ChrisMayLA6 @bookstodon Ah yes, the bitterest of books. Best served to a charity shop :D

apparentlyrolly, to books

Finally finished the Kafka anthology I got over a year ago. Now I can sigh with relief that I'm no longer just prying in his correspondence and diaries, but have also read part of his fiction. And I liked most stories, so that's great.

I'm not sure what I'll read next, the last months my brain has swtiched off the liking-audiobooks part of itself and I've barely listened to any. All year I couldn't concentrate on text reading so most of my read pile consists of audiobooks but now it's the opposite. I can't bring myself to focus on the narration, my mind drifts off and too often I prefer silence. I'd like to fix that because I've got some nice-sounding books saved but I guess we'll see.

@apparentlyrolly @bookstodon I went through a similar thing recently. I read all of Pratchett and bimbled around for a bit, now am working my way through the works of Poe. Also attempting to read dragon riders of pern, but I’m just not into it

I've been rereading Terry Pratchett and now that's come to an end, I've hit a real 'what to next' block.
For so long it's been, 'the next Pratchett, of course!'

I used to follow a lot of accounts on the birdsite. Mordecai, "Mensch Ohne Musil", was my favourite, and the lady who posted lots of 20th century landscape paintings. Can't find many good ones here. Suggestions?
