Cool door hinges.

In the background? They are on a pair of church doors I rescued from getting burnt when they demolished a local church. They are insanely heavy - you can only open the one on the right. The one on the left has a bookcase behind it full of DVDs.

My heart leaps up when I behold vintage Penguins all in a row.

My heart leapt when I found I had a copy of the first ever Penguin:

With its dust wrapper!

Not exactly a book haul but we just got given this stonking great bookcase:

Which, after some arm wrestling, my wife and I are sharing. She gets the right hand side to fill with 'craft stuff' and I get the left to get my idiotically large number of old Penguin paperbacks out of the boxes where they have been languishing. This will give me a chance to sort through them and de-duplicate things.

The shelves will hold paperbacks three deep so that's about 150 books per shelf. I might get them all in.

I'm not sure what I'm more envious of, the bookcase or the room in which to put the bookcase.

And three novel by Robert McCammon
Nightboat
The Thirst
The Hour of the Wolf

Read
They Thirst many years ago and liked it...

...more than the author as ever since he's stopped it from being republished - and not for any controversial content (a la Stephen King with "Rage") he just doesn't think it's any good. Same goes for another couple of his first books.

 

[AE35Unit]

That only applies to its fiction books. Non fiction books are just arranged randomly...
