Recently came across someone online with a nice home library and now thats all I can think about. I keep obsessing over doing my own home library in one of the rooms and spending all that money on the work, the shelves and the new books. How do you stop obsessing over wanting to spend money on things that I didnt even think about a week ago? 😫

Usually I either get my books from the library or buy Kindle versions. I love reading and thought since I love reading so much id love to have a physical home library so I can keep all the books that I read

Those topics are a bit of a trigger for me and the last few books I picked up have exactly those so I had to DNF. looking for good unputdownable books without those triggers. Thanks!

As the title suggests, been in a bit of a reading slump with the sci fi books but want to get back into it. Last sci fi books that I read and loved are Spin, Wool series (sort of sci fi), the mercy of gods, 2001. I did not like the popular bobiiverse series, don't enjoy the writing of Alastair Reynolds or Adrian Tchaikovsky as I know their books are highly recommended. Read some of the murderbot books and found them ok. Need something thats not too hard to get into and has some space travel

Usually buying things gives me a mood boost but since stopping it cold turkey almost I cant help but feel low and down and a bit depressed. Any advice on how to improve such mental state?
