Hurricane Helene destroyed my library (along with everything else). It was a collection of over 30 years worth of books.

The only surviving books are an old copy of Oliver Twist, Pride and Prejudice, and Wuthering Heights. There was a 21 foot flood that annihilated my home, car, job, and everything I owned. Is it strange that the thing that is breaking my heart the most is the loss of my library? I had an old OLD edition of A Farewell to Arms given to me by a now deceased friend and a copy of Huck Finn from my father. I want to build it up again eventually, when I’m back on my feet.

I figured people in this community could appreciate what a loss this is, as opposed to my PS5 or tv.

Thank you for letting me share this little trauma with you all.
