Stuff of my dreams!

This looks daunting as all hell

This video is so sweet. I really enjoyed it and you two are so kind and sweet :)

I find these used on eBay and Etsy often at $25 to $30.

we don’t have any books 📚 or library 📚 😢😢 in Libya 🇱🇾 😢😢

Stunning collection and expensive. I just found out that books need to be pushed to the back of the shelf, so the bindings don't get warped. It isn't as aesthetically pleasing, but with books of that quality, ...it's also slightly better protection from dust, so the pages don't need to be brushed as often. Absolutely stunning. Thank you for sharing.

I just started my Easton Press collection. I’m almost done with Divine Comedy and I’m super excited for the books to start coming in. They’re so beautiful to look at.

You've got a beautiful collection. 😍 I am thinking of starting a collection of my own sometime in the future. I'm still doing research on what editions would fit me best. I feel like the editions you own are a bit too big for me personally and I feel like I'd constantly be stressed not to crack their spines and damage them since they look so gorgeous. ☺️

Gorgeous volumes and quite a few of them promote your personal development too. If I completely understood Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics I would count myself a better person. Thanks for the tour!

Beautiful library! You're very fortunate to be able to have room enough for all these bookshelves!

I collect children's books of this sort as an adult because when I was a kid, I wasn't allowed to buy books that were popular with kids my age at the time (e.g. Choose Your Own Adventure, Encyclopedia Brown Boy Detective, The Three Investigators, &c.), so for the next 35 years, I was dead set on getting not just the books I wasn't allowed to buy but their original first editions no matter the cost; at this time, I am focused on collecting Alfred Hitchcock and the The Three Investigators Series, all in 1st edition hardcovers. As for Goosebumps, I've read only one book as a kid, though I plan to buy a whole set sometime in the future after filling-in the gaps in my Encyclopedia Brown 1st ed. collection.

I bought several Easton Press books at a thrift store over weekend so I recognize some of the spines. I also have a facsimile of the 1623 Shakespeare first folio printed in 1946, which I have stripped its cover and did a rebinding in real calf leather with 18kt gold title on the spine. That said, I'd like to see Easton Press produce leather bound editions of the Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators, and Encyclopedia Brown Boy Detective series.

I've found Ebay and Abe's to have various Easton Press volumes available as used volumes. I just purchased the Bulfinch's Age of Fable and the Age of Fable Illustrated editions from Ebay for my brother's March birthday. I have been collecting the Science Fiction and Signed Masters of Science Fiction collections -up to 107 now. I purchased the Richard Burton Thousand and One Nights (aka Arabian Nights) 17 volume collection as well. Also acquired a non Easton Press a copy of the 50 volume Harvard Classics, which is also gilded leather bound (but not as good as Easton). I have 2100+ volumes in my collection of books -and growing... Ordered 4 yesterday!

You can certainly judge a book by it's cover in this unique collection. The novels are masterpiece as well the binding.

I’m reading P&P at the moment. I completely understand why it’s one of your fav books. I’m loving it

I think the most attractive Easton Press book is Lysistrata, by Aristophanes, illustrated by Picasso. It's a big red leather volume, very attractive.

I didn't like The Book Thief at all, although I usually really enjoy historical WWII themed books. No idea why it would be popular at all, I can think of many better ones. Found your video because I was looking up how to find books through Goodwill Outlet. Hope you update shopping for books there and how much, etc. I think it's by the pound?

Unbelievable collection! But it seems like you have very little respect for these books. The way you are talking about them so casually or handling them so roughly and dropping them. It's evident you didn't collect these books yourself. Otherwise you would have super cautious about these books.

Wow what a library! Your mum had good taste.

Hi Paige 😮!!! Just checking in on you and miss your videos. Hope you and Troy are doing well.

Hey!!!! Paige and Troy. Did ya get married?????!!! Plz keep us in the loop!! Miss you both!!

I didn’t read them as a kid. Reading them now as an adult and I really like them. Dead House was great. I can’t believe she called it a dud.

Love,love,love collection Easton Preston The Brazil ❤❤❤❤ Grandulations

Where are the uploads

I second Lonesome Dove as a good western if you like friendships as the center of the plot. I’ve heard great things about The Sisters Brothers, though I’ve only seen the recent film myself. Congrats on the engagement!! I hope things are going smoothly for you guys. It will be a whirlwind (or was already by the time of this comment?!) but it’ll be great ❤🎉

I am starting my own classic book collection so right now the only books I got are The hobbit The fellowship of the ring The two towers The return of the king In three weeks the books that will arrive getting all books from Jules Verne Sherlock homes Mark Twain H.g. Wells And moby dick All the books you got in the video I am going to save up n get. turns out there is a lost Jules Vern book that wasn’t published until it was found in 1996 by his great great grandson. You might like it

Your collection is gorgeous. I started collecting them a couple years ago. I find them used pretty inexpensively and generally in fine condition because most people don't read them, they just leave them on the shelf. I like reading a really fine edition. I often pick titles that I have heard about but never read. Examples are William Tell, Cyrano Bergerac and Don Juan.

Do you just collect books or have you read your collection?

Your collection is absolutely mind-blowing and thank you so much for sharing it with us!

That's amazing. I like how all the books are unique and different sizes, but follow a loose "family" aesthetic

Lonesome Dove By Larry McMurtry is one of the greatest western novels. A personal favourite that is a little harder to find is The Snowblind Moon By John Byrne Cooke.

Holy crow that Lucy score book is THICC

💕💕👍

💕💕👍 Congratulations

Watching people bookshopping is my new favourite thing 😍☺ Troy's commentary was hilarious 😂 I recently bought Hamnet too!

Wanted to reply when you posted the video but got sidetracked ! Loved your video. You and Troy are adorable as always. Hamnet will break your heart. The Priory of the Orange Tree - broke my heart the romance was really heavy for me. It wasn’t an easy read sometimes and at other times I couldn’t get enough. The prequel got released today! I hope you enjoy it! Babel- I can’t believe you didn’t finish The Poppy War series yet! I hope you finish it soon. It broke my heart with that ending. But it was a really nice ending where it kinda of tied up everything. I still think of it now and then. Babel was kind of hard for me to read at times but overall I loved it. Very awesome haul as always and always enjoy seeing you guys!

Great haul and vlog my boyfriend is slowly getting into manga I'm a huge manga nerd

I think you and Troy would enjoy Battle Royale (the book), it’s so good!

Love your videos so much, even when they inspire me to spend money ;~)

Troy I would love to ask you the same question please

So sorry I have missed your last video as I was still getting over my heart attack and I am know feeling better prayers and thoughts for you and Troy love your Australia family friend John ❤❤❤

I'm not sure what genres Troy would be into for manga but here are some of my favorites: Kaiju No. 8 D.gray man Mashle: Magic and Muscles The gods lie (One-shot) Fist of the northstar Dai dark Vagabond Berserk Jujutsu kaisen The fox and the little tanuki I'll stop myself here bc I could go on and on lmfao- Hope this helps! :)

I don’t know which authors you are looking for but is it possible a lot of the booktok books are self publisher authors? In those cases I don’t know that you would find their books in Barnes and nobles but on Amazon

Nice work. I collect Easton press as well. However I collect the autographed editions.

Welcome back and congrats 🎉☕📚
