Space saver book boxes

I had book shelves at home. One was a typical book shelf that you can see in most libraries. The other was with built-in glass.

But I notice, when you are living at the hot and humid environment, books are prone to dust and bugs. Of course, as a certified book collector, I intend to protect my precious collections.

I come up with the idea of tote boxes.

Ideal place for books indeed. Protects them from dust, bugs or any harmful substance that will damage the books. It wasn't air lock of course, but I find it more convenient than bulky book shelves.

Book grabs for this week

I  will always be the Historical Romance Fan. I was in junior high when I first read a romance novel. Mills & Boons and Harlequin was the pioneer back then. 

At first, I enjoyed looking at the covers. The painting was so amazing. It wasn't a picture with the touch of airbrush from a computer program.

Computer generated painting isn't existing back then. It was all manually draw from real life models. My amazement draw my curiosity to read the book. 

Then the rest was history. 

I loved it! My eyes were opened to another world. I find historical romance more pleasant to read than contemporaries that time. I need something substantial to enhance my vocabulary. 

Since then, I got all hooked up. 

Fast forward... not bad for $30 value. All hard covers, from Good to VG condition. 

The Bookworm loves Cats!

Most of people loves dogs, and only few loves cats if you compare them altogether. 

However, since I am a cat lover, let me tell you my personal observation. 

Cat lover are more reserved but sweet. They tend to be manipulative but obedient at the same time. They are introvert, open-minded and more sensitive than dog lovers.

Cat people also tended to be non-conformists, preferring to be expedient and independent. They always do their own thing. They always think as they observe.

Oh well,  I wonder what he was thinking as he hang around on my books... 

Book Shopping

My tote boxes need to be filled with new books. After my Friends ransack my collections, I was thinking of replacing it. So I sort out bookstores and I can't find anything interesting.

Instead, I surf via ebay. Oh my gosh! Smorgasbord! Best price too. Here's what I bought...

Not bad for the price 1,200 php/ $30.00 isn't it? I can't wait to read them all.
