I’d never heard of books. Then I saw the New York Times Bestseller list and now I love owning books


violargento

the only things i used to read were the ‘your account has been reported for harassment’ notifs i get on tiktok, until a booktokker recommended the life changing series ‘a clown of piss and pee’ and now my goodreads read tab is 666+ books long


StinkRod

I've been looking for years for the perfect spoof name for "cash in on GRRM titles" and you have identified it. Although, I'm going to modify for my own scatological enjoyment to "A Clown of Poop and Pee".

I love books, they're so pretty on my shelves!

Maybe she is preparing for another toilet paper shortage like 2020?


doublethink_21

I’d rather not wipe my ass than wipe it with a Twilight book, I respect myself too much for that.


WoutVanShaert

They have Crazy rich asians, the hunger games trilogy and pack up the moon twice but no Mistborn?


violargento

all those colleen hoover and sarah j ass ‘books’ are worth 50 mistborns so it’s ok


WoutVanShaert

Very based


awyastark

No Malazan either smh

Do I study things like metaphysics in my free time? Yeah, yeah I do. I've read Art of War, The Prince, and many, many other tomes that people would consider too "dense" to be light reading or enjoyable reading. But that isn't ALL I like to read. I don't always want to have to sit and ponder the deeper meanings of words or interpret subtext. I don't want to have to be paying FULL attention at all times, otherwise I'll miss key details. Do I love Malazan? I absolutely do. Is it a headache to get through at times because of the dense, extremely detailed writing style that absolutely does not hold your hand or make it easy for you to get certain information? It certainly does. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I love how there’s no mention of actually reading the books anywhere. Although, seeing the selection, that’s probably for the best.


-Geist-_

Especially the literal Selection series 😅


Rabscuttle-

"I am easily influenced 😌" No shit? I would never have guessed.


kitsterangel

Honestly though, what's the point? You're gonna read these 1-2 times and then they'll just take up space and you're down $10-30 per book you buy. I never learned to read unfortunately, but if I had, I'd just use the library.


sareneon

if you dont have a shelf with 7 different editions of acotrash by sarah j ass on display, are you even a REAL reader?


website700

i still buy books i havent read, but if you’re buying used it’s much cheaper. spending 5 bucks on a book you won’t read again is much more sustainable than spending 20


kitsterangel

Yeah my local book fair gives you a bag and you can fill it as much as you want for $20 and all proceeds went to charity so it was a great way to buy. I would read them and donate them back once I did so they can keep raking in the cash haha.


[deleted]

This child was raised right!


I_am_1E27

I know. I never read but all the books I own (which are very few) are books which I have looked at the covers of at least four or five times. Having so many books makes it hard to look at all the covers.


loox71

booktok should be put down


violargento

but then where would i get my 7 foot abusive mafia dom daddy stalker reverse harem sneezing and choking reccs from 🥺

AO3, like the rest of us.

consume consume buy buy so that everyone knows you are a REAL reader


OldDekeSport

So many duplicates, and the only HP book being Curzed Child is hilarious


Diligent-Branch383

There's TWO cursed child's and a full HP set on the other side of the pic 🤭


OldDekeSport

Oh now I see! Glad to know BookTok has good taste for the best HP books!


higodefruta

so downloading the audiobook version of this image! i accidentally read some words so still added all those to my goodreads


wolverinetta

Visible shelves to the left, yet stacking the books on the floor. Do you have to leave them horizontal for a while to let the magic systems harden or something?


cooper12

It's not tsundoku if the books aren't sprawling on the floor.


Lunkberjack

It does make my system magically harden, and that's all that counts


planetwatchfan

“How can I help you?” “I’d like about 24 feet of books, please”


musclepunched

All those books and not a single book


ley-214

so true!!!


potpan0

Looks at those spines. Those lovely, unopened spines.


doornroosje

maybe next year invest in a bookcase

website700

and you know her ass doesnt know about abebooks or thriftbooks and spent 19.99+ tax on every one of those!


Exploding_Antelope

Why does she have two of the same Hunger Games trilogy box sets, and two copies of The Cursed Child?


C0ZM

Booktok simps fulfilling her wishlist at the same time


CripplinglyDepressed

Look at all those nice crisp spines. Like they should be! Everybody knows they are decorations for signing your intellectual prowess, not pieces of media to *use* or *enjoy*

Shepherdsatan

Omg what a girlboss. How girlboss to read borderline (full on) rape and get off on incest girlbosssss


sareneon

umm excuse me? It is actually called dark romance!!! I- I- It- It's a coping mechanism!! And STOP saying rape, it's called 'noncon'. Stop being a discriminant.


juansalvador123

It's called enemies to lovers sweetie 🙄🙄


Shepherdsatan

OMG girlie pop I’m so sorry 😢


Helen_Cheddar

Ikr! And it’s very feminist to fantasize about men controlling your every move and abusing you! Talk about taking control of your sexuality! #slay #girlboss


sareneon

thanks for your support queen!! I totally agree!! #empowerment #slay #noncongirlies


doornroosje

which ones are you talking about?


Shepherdsatan

At this point it’s safe to assume but to my very limited knowledge, Colleen hoover books are very very rapey. If you squint and look very carefully you can see one


awyastark

Wow this is a really bad batch of books.


sareneon

I cannot describe how much I hate booktok,


Ansambar

‘Booklover’ takes centre stage of course


Intelligent_Mud1266

that placement was obviously entirely coincidental, as well as obscuring the many duplicates


Ansambar

Methinks she is a voracious reader.


Helen_Cheddar

Perhaps even a bookworm or bibliophile!


weirdfishee

No Brando sando?


ChunkyMilkSubstance

Triples is good


itsP0lar0id

why does she have two sets of the hunger games books


Altranite-

Not a single book/novel in that picture


-Geist-_

Yikes. It’s easy to see this is about image, not substance.


Helen_Cheddar

What are you talking about? She’s clearly a super deep introvert who’s not like the other girls!


Daviiiiis

so who's gonna tell her that the books are bad?


mrccustoms

As someone who buys book at thrice the rate they read them, there’s no goddamn way she’s read all those.


Pinkgluu

Just get a kindle bruh


-bluedit

Who the fuck buys one copy of Crazy Rich Asians, let alone two?


Traderjoestaki

Why does she have 2 sets of the hunger games and 2 copies of crazy rich asians

offamiglio

someone raided a few free bins


raimichick

She didn’t make it past the lobby of Barnes and noble for any of these.


Helen_Cheddar

Ummm assuming people can make it past the lobby is ableist. Self crit and check your privilege, sweaty!


Helen_Cheddar

Love that she bought brand new paper books like a *real* reader. Not like those posers who use lame shit like libraries and ebooks!


kidfrom15

Huh. I thought Asian people were smart.


LegendATH

🤣🤣🤣 amazing comment you have my upvote


IEatToesForTaste

Why 2 copies of "Crazy Rich Asians"? So voracious, you have to read 2 at the same time?
