Saw this today at Magnolia world. Thought at first it was cool, then started to have heart palpitations about real books being set in concrete and never being able to be read again! #texasroadtrip

marleed That‘s beautiful! I‘m down for anything that makes anyone want to own actual books. I‘ve read through library loans, or physically owned books then gave away. Then an opportunity presents itself for me to physically own the book anew or again. I may never read the newly purchased copy but I want it in my collection all the same. 5y
Soubhiville I could see doing it with books that are about to be recycled... I wonder how they kept the books so clean looking when pouring the concrete around them 🤔. I haven‘t been there yet, I‘ll have to go check it out! 5y
Mitch @Soubhiville I did give one a sneaky gentle push and they‘re in there firm! But you can still feel the pages move. Don‘t know how they‘ve done it! Lots of experimenting with concrete! 5y
