Selling books by the pound sounds sacrilegious to me.

I guess I'm not such a voracious reader that I'm buying in bulk like that.

You can also buy books by the linear foot. Apparently when WFH got going big time it caused a huge spike in demand as people wanted filled bookshelves as a backdrop for video calls.

Wow. I remember reading about buying books by the foot in a communist satire book, I didn't expect reality to catch on that quickly.
