Books to the ceiling, Books to the sky, My pile of books is a mile high.
How I love them! How I need them! I'll have a long beard by the time I read them. Arnold Lobel

When I get a little money, I buy books: and if any is left, I buy food and clothes. Erasmus

The condition of the book is placed first and the condition of the wrapper (if there is one) is placed second. This grading system is based on the amount of use a book has had. Older books may have defects not caused by use, such as fading, foxing or dust soiling. Any such defect is included in the description.
