What physical books do you have?

Too many =P But seriously, there are certain volumes I would never part with. For example: The Pragmatic Programmer, SICP, Design Patterns, The C Programming Language. Tomes which are definitive and timeless.

I also have a few for purely nostalgic value, representative of key moments in my past. Notably: the OpenGL Red Book and C++ The Complete Reference.

I only have two tech-realted books on paper:

- Microwave Transistor Amplifiers by Guillermo Gonzalez, which is a fantastic introduction and reference about high frequency circuit design

- The O'Reilly Linux Pocket guide, which has a cowboy on the cover and usually gets loaned to coworkers

Aside from that I've got a ton of sci-fi and high fantasy, but I'm slowly moving to a digital collection.

At the moment, very few. I used to read a whole bunch of philosophy books, as well as a few help books on software engineering topics.

Then over time I just realised I could get pretty much anything non fiction related online, and stopped buying any more.

Might consider reading more novels in future though.

I have a handful due to people gifting them but will eventually give them away. I’ve moved to digital more than a decade ago and simply don’t want to own physical books anymore when it can be helped.

I have a lot, but my favorites are the Time-Life Enchanted World series. I don't think I have the whole set, though.

More that thirty. I can never read online as well as I can with a paper book. Even just printing out a two-page article.

I have a lot of books. I like to read books. I also have books with blank striped paper for writing my own notes.

I just found "Land of Lisp" in a local mini library. Am excited and quite surprised.
