Hi,
I was going through my books today and that made me wonder what others keep on their shelves.
I generally have 200 - 400 books on my shelves at any one time. The majority are science fiction and fantasy (including urban fantasy) with a small subset of history books like 1776 and John Adams. I also have about 50 - 100 trade comics (mostly DC with some Spider-man and Avengers).
I tend to only keep books that I really like on the shelves. At least a couple of times a year, I work through my bookshelves and purge. I try and be realistic about what I really will read again. Those that don't make the cut are offered to friends, then offered to the used bookstores and finally donated.
Please share your book habits.
Thanks.
