Ugh but books are just about the main thing I’m consumerist about. I WANT to have them in my home indefinitely. I want to be reminded a specific title exists by seeing it on the shelf, and then reread it. And I want to underline or comment on my favourite passages in pencil. They’re the one non-necessity I’ll keep splurging on; pretty much everything else is handed down, borrowed, or necessary to some extent.
