We have lived here over 20 yrs, the longest I have lived anywhere, so we accumulated alot! The books are the hardest to get rid of.

Moving made me realize how much clutter I have and having a more reasonable number of books seemed like a good start :)

Then realized I would never read them all to our church rummage sales so they are being enjoyed and not collecting dust. I used to be a book buyer for the store I worked for and received lots of free books, I was like a kid in a candy store. Now the books I have read are listed by type of book and then by authors, the ones still waiting to be read are organized by when I received them. Like you I don’t get a chance to look through them or reread them but I do get plenty of pleasure from my library. :) I know one day I will re-read them, but I know them all by heart, they are like my friends! Hugs, Patty

I may also have a large, tottering, TBR pile in my room, but we don’t have to talk about that one :-P

I still get excited about these, so it’s fun to have them separated out! I’m also still pretty excited about my few authographed ones, so sometimes I set those, cover out, alone in a division.”

I whole heartedly agree! I have my autographed books going a different direction from all the others and keep them together :-D
