Day 15: How Massive is your Library?
I personally have many books with me at the moment. You could say this is a holdover from recently graduating from college, but I say its hording. Seriously though I have about fifteen books in a stack of ‘to read’ and about thirty in the ‘read’ pile. This doesn’t include the boxes of books I have stored in other places. So, I need to cut down.
Why not sell, give away, or ‘lose’ any book you’ve already read?
This is a simple post for today, but I plan to sell any book I have read recently (on ebay). Each one that doesn’t sell will be given away BookCrossing style. If you don’t know what Book Crossing is, check this out. Really, I’d rather ‘release’ books this way, but I need to fund the bookcrossing effort (buy nice tags) so I’ll be selling the books at first till I make around seventy dollars, then the rest will be freed! What do you do with your read books? I’m interested to know what people do with books they may want for reference in the future, like Plato’s Republic, or computer manuals.
This is of course till I get a Kindle… Any kind souls out there?
