I don’t even have a concept of an “old” book or of “reading” a book, I just keep them around for inspiration, going back for some quote, rereading, showing someone, etc. I mean I also almost never finish them, or even try to read them in linear order...

It really depends on the type of book. muzani might be thinking novels, while you could be thinking textbooks.
