I am reading books not collecting them. They are meant to be read not to look pretty on the shelf

The fact that you keep using the phrase “look pretty” is letting me know you definitely don’t get it

Here are some other words: unique, interesting, artistic…I don’t care about this particular book, it’s not my thing personally, but some people are more attracted to actual independent art and less attracted to cookie cutter mass published corporate pressed versions of something.
