There are a handful of books in my library (photos coming, maybe a video, I dunno) that I'm embarrassed of. My wife owned it before we met... *shrugs*

 

I'm not embarrassed by it.  That dude used some of my photos for the book with the typical arrangement/promise of a free copy of the book when it was released.  But- dude never followed through on that.  Dude did keep me on his mailing list though resulting in me periodically having to send replies requesting that he fellate my glizzy to the fullest.  I believe he finally got the message to fuck off but yeah, fuck anything that guy puts out.

Mine was a gift from a square homie - later someone else gave me another one as a gift.  You can never have enough. 

 

@Schnitzel clearly a hard question, favorite of the collection?

 

My favorite is Graffiti World. /s

Few more from my back house - I fucking love books. Hard copies, fuck a kindle.

 

I have a shit ton of comics too - at this point I should probably just get rid of them. 

 

All the OG X-Force series, GI-Joe, Transformers and some other titles. I kept them thinking my kid would dig them, he is just into PS5 and basketball. 

 

I can see how our kids are going to think our pre-digital era shit is lame.

Those Walking Dead graphic novels are great. I never had the actual books, but they used to be on YouTube and would scroll through the strip at slow pace. I binged that shit one week at work and then they got removed.

Excuse me shitposting.  You all posted some cool stuff, I enjoyed peeping your shelves.  When I go to other people's homes and offices I do like to peep the shelves and see what they got.  Some nice surprises you all posted, but I was also surprised by what I didn't see.  I present to you what I thought your bookcase looked like.  I didn't get to everyone, but if you think you see yourself in there, well......

My favorite is Graffiti World. /s

 about a 65 way tie for that title.

 

but gonna go with these five. tend to like books that go indepth on a person or subject rather than generalist books.

 

The first that I knew was going to be a must haveIMG_BF8D14A95D17-1.jpeg.a62e87dd1ba6c464b8aefe63a49d8e2d.jpeg

 then a 12oz prophet book in depth on the manIMG_1745.jpg.124e17a50413e17719907ccd5f1f14fa.jpg

 this book on a german king i liked who committed suicide in 2002.

IMG_50F49C82837A-1.jpeg.757c9b7a15397427bdae81e6dc663034.jpeg

 

The greatest book thus far on Australian graffiti (in terms of writing and general production.

IMG_91E6774D630C-1.jpeg.141fd76f3a67eea023df196582e0197e.jpeg

Alright. The fiction,  architecture, gardening, bonsai, Graff, pin-up, half the art, tattoo, and misc other are mine. But well over half is the wife's,  she also has another 8' of shelves upstairs and a bunch at her studio....

 

I only took a few highlight pics or author's collections I'm most proud to own.

 

Do we all own Papillon?

Nice rug. I got this one.

 

Unfortunately, my library/bookshelf is embarrassing compared to y’all’s.FC4E3349-E86D-4E2A-8086-5EDA13FC9BF2.thumb.jpeg.aa4b46e46558bf2ded63e6be41e31e5b.jpeg

I like how we all skipped around the crystal dong shaped elephant in the room.

fertility symbol?

 

 

That shelf has most of the sex books on it, it just seemed like fitting decor for the spot.

Why is the book of skulls not with the skull?!

Good stuff.

 

The cowskull is next to the McCarthy books. I have a horse skull that used to live there,   but it is too tall to fit in that space now with rearranged shelves.

 

Almost all the bric-a-brac Is placed symbolically by book, subject, or author.

i only keep a small stash in the house, the rest are in storage. I also unloaded a big ass box into the little free libraries a few months back. 
 

Edit: these are either on the to-read list, or something i keep around to comb through. 
 

double edit: looking at that photo made me notice that one of the books got pushed back. That book is “The Struggle Against the State and Other Essays.” - Nestor Makhno.
