I don't have the cash or the space to buy these things, but I love reading them. My local library stocks new art books every week and I check out all of them. Even if it's not my thing, I can flip through it in ten minutes and feel like I did a good deed for my brain.

I’ve been buying books this whole time?
Also putting books on hold, collecting them when they are ready and have your name printed on the docket makes me feel inordinately good.

A space where you can pick a bunch of books (and even other media) and leave with them for free? Okay! Great way to discover new authors too. Next ones in my reading pile are : New Waves by Kevin Nguyen and Your Driver is Waiting by Priya Guns.
