A tool designed to estimate the combined height of a collection of books forming a vertical stack, often representing a reader’s accumulated accomplishments, is gaining popularity. This estimation typically factors in the average thickness of volumes within specific genres or series, providing a visual representation of literary progress.
This method of quantifying reading progress offers a tangible and visually appealing way to track personal literary achievements. It can serve as a motivational tool for readers, encouraging them to expand their literary horizons and providing a sense of accomplishment. The historical context likely stems from the inherent human desire to visualize and quantify progress, combined with the increasing prevalence of online book communities and social media sharing.
