My workout is reading in bed until my arms hurt
When I think about books… I touch my shelf
Single, vaccinated, loves to read. Vax card and reading list available upon request.
It’s not hoarding if its books
Better to have a book and no time to read than time to read and no book
Less is more — unless it’s books
I have no shelf control
Every book you’ve ever read is just a combination of 26 letters
One does not stop buying books just because one has run out of space
Dinosaurs didn’t read books… and look what happened to them
I’ll stop buying books when they grow wings and fly
Better to have a book and no time to read than time to read and no book
Stop and smell the pages
Go with your Gutenberg
Dinosaurs didn’t read books… and look what happened to them
Outside of a dog, a book is man’s best friend. Inside of a dog it is too dark to read. – Groucho Marx
Professional bookworm
