!bookworms do you guys occasionally spend more money to get pretty editions of books you like or want to read?
Pic related is from a hardcover edition of "The Origin of the Species" I found at the bookstore and loved.
I recently ordered a copy of Kafka's "The Trial" by the same publisher "Martin Claret".
Also, I think the Brazilian edition of the book "Vikings: Children of Elm and Ash" by Neil Price looks better than the American edition.
This one in English
And this is the Brazilian by "Crítica" which I have. It's a paperback, but I still think it's pretty.

What's funny is that I own a bunch of books in Spanish as well. Up to Milei's rise everything was cheaper in Argentina so I would always buy books while on a trip in Buenos Aires.
Go get it!

I kid, I love the good people of Brazil. My first crush was a Thiago, debating Catholicism in the old days.

Almost all the Thiagos I know are with h, but they're rather young. @BrasilIguana
Also, many Brazilians like to decorate names to make them sound fancy, but 90% of the time is just tacky.
For instance the name "Priscila" but there are people who name their daughters "Pryscylla".
There are some generational fashion names too. Many gen alphas were named "Enzo" or "Pietro" for instance.
And there are ugly butt names which are thankfully becoming rare like "Volnei, Valdirene, Josileide, Cleyde, Claunidey, Rudinéi, Leydy".
