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 :)

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
