HE’S EVEN GOT BOOKS STACKED ON THE CHAIR.
I want. I want with a burning, passionate, delirious desire. Right now, I’ve only got about 20 feet of books…so maybe I could possibly fill up half of one of his rows. Plus I haven’t even read all of mine. Neil Gaiman is so well-read it’s baffling. I read the First Book of the Faerie Queen this year, and it blew my mind to finally realize all the allusions to it in Stardust. Gaiman read a medieval middle-English text and then drew on it to write an insanely popular novel-turned-movie. This is why this man is my greatest literary inspiration. Gaiman and Shakespeare. The Brits know what they’re doing.

Want!!!
Not the books, have that. The place to put them, oh God! The SHELVES! They must be mine!!! And chair. Cushy nice chair would rock, too.
Growing up, we always had plywood and cinder blocks for shelves, so I feel really ritzy with a couple of mismatched thrift-shop bookcases…but oh man, there are STILL books piled on my floor! I could take or leave the chair…I want a hammock!
Hammocks rock. Nowhere at my place to hang one, sadly.
I too only have cheap, make-do shelves. And they house less than 1/3 of all my books. Need not to be renting so I can convert 98% of contiguous wall space into bookshelves. Remaining 2% is for kitchenwares 🙂
