Got rid of some 400 books that I realized I would never read again. Almost all went to the local library.

But I've run out of space. And no, there isn't much space on those shelves - they are stacked 2 deep. I'm guessing that I got rid of close to 400 books this weekend, and my remaining shelf - nearly full with the 1000+ I still have.<br /><br />Plus, I'm still receiving about a book a day. I hope to cut down on that with digital ARCs, but there is no magical button to click to make that happen.Nethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16963540055415924510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17224228.post-52175942510102788912012-09-04T11:03:28.120-07:002012-09-04T11:03:28.120-07:00I could never get rid of a single one of my books ...I could never get rid of a single one of my books - they're a collection for me, a treasure. Plus they're expensive, especially since I only buy new! You had so much more room on that shelf - it's all about maximising space! But good work nonetheless!<br /><br />PS: I'll get back to you in a few years when my partner starts making threats.Joshua Lowehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05660987767660028351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17224228.post-2514224567186611672012-09-04T03:44:55.373-07:002012-09-04T03:44:55.373-07:00Daaaawwwmmnnn that's a lot of books!!
