This week's question...
How about First Editions? Are they something special? Or “just another book” to you?
My answer...
For me, they're "just another book". I mainly read contemporary books and first editions don't play into those. If you are a serious collector, especially of the classics, I'm sure they are very important. I collect books, but mine aren't considered collectibles (just in my own mind - LOL).

I do not care either really :)
ReplyDeleteAny book you own can be considered a collectible :D ... books have their own personal value!
ReplyDeletebooks are special no matter what!
ReplyDeleteInteresting question, don't you think? I personally am an avid reader, not a collector of books, although, I do own alot. Here's my answer for this week's Booking Through Thursday.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you on this. There are books which are worth collecting and it would still depend if you are a collector or not. I actually had an incident before that I was suppose to buy a first edition set of Diving Comedy in Latin and my partner asked me,"Do you read Latin?" and I said, "No. But these are first edition!!" and I just got a reply of, "If you don't read Latin, why buy it???" Lol. Can't forget this story.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by. :)
