What these threads always go to show is that buying books and reading books are two entirely separate hobbies.

I don't know. I tend to read 1~2 books a week. I can imagine that someone reading over many years could build a collection like that. I also finish less than half the books I buy, and from what I hear anecdotally, I imagine that's on the high end.

Why is it that most of the bookshelves shown here are aesthetically unpleasing? Don't get me wrong: you shouldn't judge a book by the cover, but you could at least try to have a decent looking living space.

I do not like your taste. It's very similar to mine back when I was younger. I grew out of it though. It feels kind of stale and limited in the sense it presumes some kind of "academic progress". It's hard to explain, but there is nothing unique or truly awe-inspiring about your selection. It's generic in a way that's hard to put into words.
