I Bought a New Book Container

Philippines
May 14, 2026 10:38am CST
I am decluttering my table, so I decided to buy a new book container to store my old pocket books there. I am planning to buy 3 more. I am not just decluttering, but I am also protecting my books from dust. I have lots of books that I need to keep. I don't want to throw them away; I always keep them with me and reread them when I have time. Do you also buy book containers to store and protect your books at the same time? The book container in the photo can be bought on Shoppee.

I don’t usually buy them for my books. I tend to just put them in my book shelf, but if I had too many for my bookshelves I might do that.

Same here that is why I bought one, and my desk is full of books already.

I have large bins to hold books I plan on reading, or in bookshelves. Once the book is read, I donate it or give it to a friend.

You are such a good person. I just keep it for myself, lol! I always buy fantasy novels, and I really love them all and I always reread it if I have time.

@luisadannointed I’ve reread books because I forgot that I read them before.

@DianneN Hahahahaha! Sometimes I reread the books not because I really like them, but because I just found the last book of the series that I am reading after a year, and I need to refresh my mind about it, lol.

I have small bookshelves, which is why I need to store them in a container.

I don’t really buy books anymore. But I still have a few old ones from years ago sitting on the bookshelf.

@pitsipeahie Yeah, watching videos is really the thing now, because it's easy and you can carry it with you through phones. Thank you for sharing.

@luisadannointed Rarely. I'd rather watch videos these days though sometimes I may listen to audiobooks.

I already have a big book container. It was bought by my father when I was a high school student. He noticed my love for books and purchased it.

@Shivram59 I do! And I am so blessed that @DaddyEvil shared with me a link where you can download free online books. I think I also shared it with one of my blogs.
