I've had an anti-library for a good long while now, and what I've noticed is that occasionally I'll realize that I book I have is the perfect primer for a subject I need to get quickly up to speed on. This is usually only because I've spent some time thumbing through it already since it's been on my shelf for years. I'll subsequently devour the book and feel a great deal of satisfaction at the stars having aligned like this. It happens rarely but it's a nice treat, and always feels like taking a knowledge power pill.



Consider it your professional library.
