A friend of mine is an avid antique book collector. As a general lover of books, I always thought that this was a supermegafoxyawesomehot hobby. So I decided to join her in it. I just bought my first true antique book. Two dollars, excellent shape. I just got home and looked it up and found a news article from 1908 reviewing the book. I am peeing in glee right now. I was even more excited when I read the review where it stated what an excellent book it is because it can fit right in your waistcoat pocket. <3
Unfortunately, I passed up a book from the 1800's which was going for five dollars... I sort of really want to go back for it now...
Maybe tomorrow.
UNGH, I LOVE OLD BOOKS. IT'S SO TINY AND CUTE AND SMELLS LIKE HISTORY. I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW.
