Back in university, I bought books recommended by my courses or by people in general, which eventually led to a cupboard overflowing with volumes. One day, long after university and tired of the realization that I might never read them, I gave them all away to whoever wanted them; the rest went to the raddi wala to be recycled.
A few years after doing that, I remembered that one of those books was a book which i needed. I searched for it locally and then on the internet, finally finding it online. I asked a friend to fetch it for me, a process that took approximately a year. Now, I have read the initial part of that book and it sits on my shelf, but it is one of only a few technical books remaining there. Most of my technical collection is now digital, stored on Google Drive or in my HumbleBundle library. My physical shelf now hosts Islamic books which I plan to read one day.
And so, the cycle of Tsundoku continues.
