Yes, Make Books Great Again is right. Not from Amazon or a Kindle. Think about it, Kindle. Books are Kindle? Like in Burn the Books? This is the Wish of Amazon. A Big Bonfire.
I am not giving away any of mine. I even hate pocket books. Nothing but a hardcover for me. I collect old mystery books, 30's and 40's and up and the prices are rising. Why? Because people love them and will pay for them. Wait, if they disappear, those that killed them, will want them back. They will try to buy them from people like me. The girl next door loves real books and I am happy to buy her some at Christmas and her Birthday. We have to keep them alive.
Wow. Who knew you could sell books to the library. If we stop printing real books, they will say we don't need libraries. Wake up you Young Folks. They are important. They are changing our education one step at a time so it won't be noticed. Scary. Reading improves your brain and those of our future adults. Our kids need to stimulate their brains. Cursive writing is also on the way out. This is much needed for brain stimulation as well. I have been worried about this for years.
So far my local library is where we now meet up for a relaxing Saturday morning file swaps.
Not only movies, but audiobooks and music.
Bring a laptop with one full TB and one empty. Two cheap 1 TB or larger HDD's and the world is yours.

If all these Pedophile protector's get exposed, virtue signalling only adds fuel to the fire.
Burn down Hollywood and Make Books Great Again.

Used books sales are booming. Local traders are also bootleg traders.

I've always purchased used books at garage sales. One dollar buys hard covers in good condition. Paper backs can be 5 for a buck or a dime each.

I look for used BluRay/DVD box sets for pennies on the dollar.
Did you know the retail price of Matrix can be had for 10 bucks yet retailed for 100?
90% profit if one cares to do minimal volunteer work at the local Library.

Thanks for the heads up. This is a great idea I may just look into.

I commend you. Great Idea and should be shared with other friends and families.
