Shelf Rate thread

Shelf Rate thread

This is THE Meme shelf. Can we make this the banner or background of lit! Im impressed user, you are a great taker of bait.

if the author is dead buy the book used. Don't give those ugly penguins your money 4/10

This is all reading to be done through college. Some great works, but definitely a meme shelf.

I give you a 4/10

tucked to the left of Anthropology from a Pragmatic Point of View is Empiricism and the Philosophy of Mind by Sellars

POST IT

Looks dense and hard.

Here is the big bookshelf

Cheap wood, but looks functional, inoffensive and reasonably sturdy.

Patrician's choice is all on my kindle

Clean your shelf, seppo

this is the shelf of someone who doesn't like literature but wants to feel intellectual

That’s not dirt, it’s some tobacco I keep there in case the store runs out.

>halo wars
0/10 my guy
Not even funny as bait desu

You're a man of taste, user

Dude, Rushdie is hardly ever talked about on this board, and I have no idea why.

my other shelf (I need to organize it better ugh)

epic, simply epic

Was thinking the same thing.

boring books
period pieces

>is it okay
Translation: I’m insecure in my own tastes and desperately require the approval of an anonymous Laotian goat farming board to buy the volumes I want to display on my own private bookshelf.

It could be worse. Not sure how, but it could probably be worse.

Really? I would never have thought that. Satanic verses for examples is great in its scope and entertaining as hell.

I have 25 bookshelves

>people like this actually exist

RIP indeed

At last the gass got to pass

>all that Lacan, Althusser, and Derrida poking out the bottom
CONTINENTAL CHAD CONFIRMED

I hope for your sake and mine that this isn't actually your shelf

I'm a one trick pony

i can smell the soy from here, leftie cucks

oh dear

The Art of the Deal is recommended reading. Then you have no excuse for acting surprised when Trump pulls shit like demolishing historical brownstones to shove blacks into the street because they can't pay 5000% inflated rent. The ghostwriter did a sufficient job at telling the truth while still stroking Trump's ego

>every cambridge kant text is a different size
fuck you cambridge. nice collection though

penguin classics/10

you should get John Donne's poetry and prose
he was actually a cleric
you need Augustine's Confessions & The City of God, and you should pick up the Hackett two volume "Basic Writings of Thomas Aquinas"
Check out "A Secular Age" by Charles Taylor, you'd really like it
Have you read The Seven Storey Mountain?

Why not just get a kindle?

John Donne's poetry and prose, gotcha.

I just started getting into reading; I've read Augustine's Confessions. Coincidentally, I just checked out a book containing both Confessions and The City of God! lol

I'll check out Hackett; A Secular Age, I'd look at that too user thanks!

I haven't read The Seven Story Mountain.

can i get a picture of bookshelves lined with kindles? I need it for memes and shit.

F

why is fanged noumena so smol

You're all fucking spaztics.

85% of these books have never been read. Lame

something something the smell.

...

Plebbest question.

-Main reason: Most of the books I read are not avaible for ereaders
-You can't underline and take notes
-You can't check several books at the same time

But if you are a reddit, housewife, or hipster a kindle is a good idea for reading shit like Murakami or Game of Thrones.

>Most of the books I read are not avaible for ereaders
Name 3.
>You can't underline and take notes
You can.
>You can't check several books at the same time
Why would you ever need to do this?
This annoyance is outweighed by the ability to jump to endnotes/citations anyway imo

...

Physical books are fedora tier.

>Not putting all your Murakami books on the same shelf
My autism can't take it

Last three books I bought:

-Trilingual Aristotle's Metaphysics
-Seminar on Hegel by Hyppolite and co.
-Maximov's Phisiology

>Why would you ever need to do this?
Have you ever read anything besides fiction? Lol.

pretty leather editions you have on the bottom. They look super worn though

this is so cringy

>reading any fiction

You post that shit in every thread. Into the trash with Laura "Southern"!

are all those 8s an implicit reference to the word b8, m8?

I have the same edition of War and Peace and the translation is shit. It doesn't even tell you who the fucking translator is. That's how shit it is.

>3 editions of Infinite Jest
Highly doubt they were significantly different.

Different translations

25 shelves or 25 Bookcases consisting of multiple shelves?

...

>NOAB
excellent choice, my dude

25 shelves on 4 bookcases and 1 small shelf

Ah, so you're the faggot who spams about the Douey Rheims translation. Protip: Vatican II was 45 years ago.

kys winston

who's winston?

R8 and masturb8, my dudes.

Muh kindle.

>all those Penguin classics

Ugh can you not

nice collection user, although now that I've seen it I regret buying Napoleon the great version of Robert's autobiography especially since the other version looks so nice.

10/10.

Cuckinental/10.

It's all Nietzsche.

How is Alianza for philosophy? I really like them but i'm not sure if it is worth it buying non fiction with them
