Do you re re-read books? Do you have a favorite, that you have read until it has fallen apart? I have lot of favorites, but here is one that has been read to pieces.

I recently replaced the ones I had like that when we moved. Decided it was time as the tape fixes wasn't working anymore. I replaced those paperbacks with hardback editions of the books. Wish I would have thought to have taken photos of them.

No sweat, nothing like a good book, and a warm puppy! :)

I can’t say that I re-read too many books, if any at all! I’m really weird when it comes to books. I like them pristine, and if they get bent up even a little, or a page gets a little dirty, I think argh!! Ok, I used to be a lot worse. I’m not as bad anymore, but I still get sad when they get a used look to them.

Lol I am the same. Drives me crazy if they get dirty

THIS ONE IS FALLING APART. I LIKE IT; LOL! I actually bought this one in Hardback, so It will last better. Reading is how I relax sometimes. But I do have several that have suffered form re-reads. I bought a set of books that are 150 years old that need some repair, but I bought them to conserve them. :D

smithlabs...I suppose you're going to repair those old books too?

Have a dvd on how to fix them, BUT I may pay to have those fixed. Right now I am reading the old jack tar, to see if they are worth it.

I have been thinking about giving them to www.gutenberg.org to be digitized.

I have a few refer to regularly.
I love books but I don't have one that's falling apart.

Well...you need to work on that, ROFLOL! Glad you re read! :)

Yes they are a treasure

When you read, knowledge moves from the pages, to your brain. THAT is why they are such a treasure! :D

Exactly! And then it's yours forever

So very true! Every book improves the brain.... :)

I ain't got time to read no books right now.

Too much time on the steemit?

Reading improves your mind, you don't want to turn liberal on me do you?
