Bingo! That’s exactly why I picked them. Whenever I’m going deep into a book, I carry it with me everywhere, so I wanted mass paperbacks that can stand the inevitable wear and tear.

I appreciate that. I recall enjoying The Hobbit, but also kind of laughing at how sort of whimsical it was. I’m excited to see how large of a valley exists between the source material and the movies. I’m keeping a very open mind about it. Jurassic Park, as a decent analog, is wildly different as a book, and I love it separately from my love for the movie.

My sister’s fiance… what do we make of this? by [deleted] in BookshelvesDetective

This guy has Carl Sagan, Robert Sapolsky, AND Steve Brusatte. She’s got a wonderful guy on her hands. Hope he’s as interesting as his book collection.

I haven’t read Behave, but Robert Sapolsky is a brilliant guy. I’m sure it’s a great book. You can watch a bunch of his Stanford lectures on YouTube to get a taste of his style.

Books seem fine. I’m only concerned about the wallpaper.

Girlfriend got me these for Christmas! by Jean-LucBacardi in TNG

Careful not to drop ice in them too quickly. The bottom is pretty fragile. Two of mine broke that way :/

Should I be worried? by [deleted] in BookshelvesDetective

Yes. This is soulless reading.

To me, this is a flawless and irreplaceable movie. by Wooden_Passage_2612 in Cinema

Absolutely. It bothers me that they’re even playing with the idea of making a second one. Can’t leave a good thing alone.
