What else are we supposed to be doing with these things other than stacking them?

Sometimes I take them out to admire, to imagine having read them

Hmm good tip! Maybe take a picture of yourself holding the book and look reflective? Put a sepia filter on it?

If you ever want econ/finance/investing book recs, hit me up! I focused on econ in college and love it, and worked in the personal finance/investing space for a bit. This is only some of my books in that category

I love this. Expedited way to find like-minded peeps. I have many of those books on my shelves, some read, some not yet.

Yeah I have stacks all over the place. I’ll try to quote post one tomorrow @mjwhansen.com ???? For now here’s my current bedside table stack. Finished Dune Messiah, mostly done with Wild Faith.
