If you happen to have, or know people who have books (by any of these authors) to which you are no longer attached, I would love to have them. I know some people are at a stage in their lives where they are trying to let go of some portion of their book collections, but I am still very much collecting. At some point more bookshelves may be in order. Or a bigger home with a room that is just a library. Preferably with a secret door hidden somewhere in amongst the shelves.

I am a simple creature who does not ask for much. Just,

in no particular order:

Edgar Allen Poe
John Muir
Tamsyn Muir
Mary Oliver
Maya Angelou
Neil Gaiman
Derek Parfit
Joseph Campbell
Carl Jung
William Blake
Robert Frost
Andrea Gibson
Terry Pratchett
Loren Eiseley
John Lewis
James Baldwin
Stephen King (The Dark Tower series, specifically)
Robin Wall Kimmerer
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Henry David Theraeu
Wendell Berry
Douglas Adams
Aldo Leopold
Pablo Neruda
Rumi
Carl Sagan
Stephen Hawking
David Whyte

Dr. Seuss

Ursula K Le Guin

Madeline L’Engle
Amanda Palmer

I know that libraries exist for a reason, but also I’m kind of book dragon who wants to sleep surrounded by my ridiculous hoard of superfluous possessions.

Still open to recommendations, as always.
