[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My elementary schoolers each have about two big shelves worth, so prob 100 books each?

I only have about 15 books in my “permanent collection” (books I’ve read and have kept around, usually for years). Those are beloved, or signed or ones I’ll even re-read from time to time. Then at any given time I probably have 20 “to be read” books that I own and another 5 or so from the library. With Christmas having just passed it might be as high as 30 (I get lots of books as gifts).

I’m a big reader (prob a book every week or two) but I cycle through books. 99% of the time, as soon as I finish a book, it’s out the door to the little free library across the street (for which I’m grateful! I almost never take books out, but it stops books from cluttering my house!)[/quote]

PP to add - my husband is also a big reader, and he keeps more. He’s probably got about 100 books. But I’ve been rubbing off on him, I’ve noticed more and more that books he reads go out the door. [/quote]
