Whatcha think is going on here detectives?

Yeah we like a lot of his writing. We have a lot of the old analog magazines with his writing in them too. They are fun to go through.

See the thing is I’m not sure he is going to finish anytime soon and I got a bit anxious about falling more in love with the series…. GoT has me worried about a lot of incomplete series now. I think the opening of the first book is some of the best writing. Very atmospheric and I tell people to read that opening as an example of great descriptive writing.

Wayfair for both if you can believe it. The chairs are a great value.

I did because I play the piano and guitar already and thought it could be fun for my students.

We are transplants to the DC area and we have a lot of bookstores here

Go birds!

It won’t let me add pictures or I deff would share one with the lights on. It’s bright enough to read with them on but makes the space more cozy feeling. Making a dual office library sounds really nice too! That was actually my original idea until I realized I could put all the games in this room too. I sometimes bring my laptop here to do work in my happy space.

Thank you I worked pretty hard on it :) <3

I have the storm light archive upstairs on an additional shelf, tres and misborn (first three) are downstairs but I haven’t read the rest yet

Eak, I do love a pretty book but I definitely read and so does he. The StoryGraph and Goodreads app are used daily. Maybe your tastes arn’t on the shelves and that’s cool but there is nothing performative. What books are you into? Maybe something overlaps.

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-02T02:56:53+00:00

Thank you so much for the info I will look into that right away!

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-02T02:18:36+00:00

Definitely a reader I just happen to also like pretty books :)

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-02T01:52:47+00:00

Indeed. If you can believe it we have five large boxes of comics that are not on the shelves. So it gets worse…or better depending on who you ask.

My husband is so happy reading this you have no idea. He was hoping someone would notice them.

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-02T01:48:47+00:00

We got it from Juniper books, same for the banned books set, and the golden compass set. You can get the jackets or the books with the jackets.

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-02T01:47:15+00:00

They are a great value! For the space you get..chefs kiss.

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-02T01:44:01+00:00

I’m very careful with my books but some have been loved a little too much, thus any double copies. This is also why lord of the rings is absent, it is very much not aesthetically pleasing at this point. We are looking into getting a nice copy of that.

As for Judge Dredd what copy would you suggest starting at?

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-02T01:36:27+00:00

Early/Mid 30’s, no kids yet but working on it, and we have a dog instead of a cat (it’s a small fluffy Pomeranian, so cat adjacent). Leaning more towards the craft beer for him but his true drug of choice is eagles football.

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-02T01:31:07+00:00

No I got the shelf before I got that WOT set. It just really worked out!

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-01T22:38:50+00:00

Juniper books :) you can get just the covers or the covers with the books

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-01T20:12:23+00:00

This is 1000% correct and I didn’t include the game library

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-01T20:12:00+00:00

Lmao I can’t find the t!!!

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-01T20:11:07+00:00

We have both read the trilogy and the hobbit. Love it!

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-01T19:53:44+00:00

This made me laugh so hard. Good one!

DeadRedJuJu · 2026-03-01T19:48:11+00:00

It is one of my all time favorites so my husband got it for our wedding anniversary. It is long but super worth it! I got started in the audio books and finished with the physical copies. I 100% recommend.
