My goal for A Small Press Life’s version of Project 365 366 is a simple one: to catalogue the vital statistics of one book per day from my collection. I have long been openly fascinated by the psychology of book buying. My own history is full of a long list of complex motivations; I have never, to the best of my memory, chosen a book due to boredom or indifference. As a life-long passionate reader, a sense of excitement has accompanied every ring of the cash register. As the year wears on, I hope to occasionally spotlight others’ books as well. Each entry will show basic information, a random excerpt and a photograph.
A Small Press Life: Books. Art. Writing. Life. Tea.
Not just a blog, a philosophy
A Small Press Life: Books. Art. Writing. Life. Tea. 
This little paragraph was so well-written and you’re right book lovers never choose a book just as a whim (unless the cover is particularly beautiful). Unfortunately for me, I’m sort of a book hoarder…meaning I never really get rid of all those books that I buy (even when they’re terrible) and so I’m starting to collect book bugs. (Not really….metaphorically).

Thank you so much! I will raise my hand and loudly confess to being a book hoarder as well. For years, I made excuses for this so people didn’t think I was odd. Now, I don’t really care. If it is a problem, it is a very enlightening one.
