BOOK LOVERS

Aesthetic, genres and vintage covers 📚


"Book collecting is an obsession, an addiction, an occupation,
a disease, a fascination, a fate.
It's not a hobby."

Reading is percived as a form of escapism by many, a way of traveling without necessarily moving.
Books are regarded as a safe haven by many, wheter because, thanks to imagination, one's fully able
to immers in a good book and escape reality, or, if one is super introverted, they are perfect as shields.
Many avid readers fear not having enough time, in their lives, to read all the various books that they
would like to, some of them, me included 🙈, might also fall into another category: the Compulsive Buyer,
where you end up buying way more books than you're able to read and the pile only grows on shelves or
nightstands. This is what the Japanese have labeled as "tsundoku".
