Which shelf are you taking with you to the bunker and what essential titles are missing from it?
Discussion
If you pick the Harry Potter shelf, I can't help you.
A bit hard to see some titles. Maybe just me though
Yeah. I had to re-upload because compression killed it. Still hard to make them out when zooming. But safe to assume any title you can't read is a waste of space that I haven't actually read.
If bunker short to medium term situation, prob a scifi shelf. If long term, probably the math shelf.
Not familiar with Sanderson, which appear in large quantity. Any good?
Sanderson is a prolific and entertaining fantasy author. We have a lot of them because he writes a lot and my wife knows it is a safe gift. I question whether his writing will be remembered long term though.
Got that impression after looking him up. Sure it’s decent, but never read much fantasy
Christian’s books
Yeah that's what my conscience would have to go with while my ego would want an engineer shelf
Any of the shelves on the second page. Who cares about physics/science and computer programming. I’m gonna need to be entertained
Randall Munroe is over in the science section and is wildly entertaining.
not trying to B A killjoy but underground living in extreme circumstances changes perspective, a little sumthing to bear in mind*/
Man Economy and State is missing.
Maybe something like "how to field dress animals" or "how to grow food" or "emergency medical procedures guide" would be good. I'm assuming you come out of the bunker someday, of course.
Yes. It is theory heavy without many practical guides.
Not planing to go in to a bunker. Let’s take ‘m outside in to the sun 😉
Fair enough.
Add sunshiny books ✅
I want to be all pious and claim the Bible shelf, but I'd probably go for the Tolkien and Dante.
Missing the Bronte Sisters, Mark Twain, and Shakespeare.
I know it's supposed to be fantasy titles, but I want what I want.
There's some Dickins and Austen on the Dune shelf but the titles are hard to read. But I am absolutely lacking for classics. I need Mark Twain's "Joan of Arc"
I've been reading that sort of thing off project Gutenberg, but should get hard copies.
I meant to reboost this with some sort of commentary that with #alexandria you don't need to pick just one shelf.
I would go for the tolkein, cs Lewis shelf.
I would add Book of the New Sun (can't see it).
Then you would really have quite the Christian shelf lol.
