Should we buy books even if we can’t read it immediately..?
Let’s assume you are at book store and saw a book you have heard a lot about. But you already have some books in your way to cross before coming to the recent one. Should you buy or just wait till you wrap up earlier in stack.?
John waters in Role models said “Nothing is more impotent than an unread library”.
But Austin Kleon in “Steal like an Artist” mention that Nothing is more important than an unread library. (back story: I’m scanning through the book and this quote hit me and thought of writing this.)
So, it basically depends upon an individual as they have to choose what suits them. Sometimes we can get bored of a book and need some fresh start so can put our hand on the next book, if there is an option.
For me, I love to be surrounded by books. And there is phase in life where I want to switch between books or simultaneously read two books one before sleep and one during travelling.
