The books look so good I wouldn't let anybody read them. I'd keep a cheap 50 cent paperback around of the original and tell visitors "Please don't touch my Castalia library, you'll soil them. Here's the same book in a paperback with the cover ripped off, don't even open those books, they're too good. I'm saving them for future generations."
It is not easy to save $100 every month lately. I have skipped some snacks (I have not skipped a meal so far) just thinking it will make the difference. And everytime I get just one book, I think about every little sacrifice I did and think it was totaly worth it
