I figured that this would be as good as any for my first post on Lemmy - showing off the entire Discworld Collector’s Library series that I managed to purchase from BookDepository.com before Amazon shut it down. Was able to pickup the whole series for around $500 USD. So glad I was able to get these and never figured I would own the complete set of these nice hardback editions.
Oh wow, I am jealous. That sounds like a great deal. I really like the hard cover editions, despite how many people seem to feel about them. My collection is a haphazard assortment of older editions I picked up from a used bookstore years ago. One day perhaps I will start upgrading my collection.
You’re not the only one. I’ve got mostly paperbacks, some of them tattered and sun-bleached (but much-loved) copies from the early 90s and others much more recent with completely different art styles and sizes. And then there’s Thud!, which someone gifted me when it came out as a giant hardback so it just totally dominates the shelf!
Having everything match would be lovely, but I don’t mind, every one of those books has memories attached and their haphazardness seems quite on brand anyway.
That is a good way of looking at it
