About how many books (roughly) would you say you own? (If you don’t have a clue how many, do you care to know? Why, or why not?)I don't know the exact answer to this question but I'm going to estimate around 500. I'd love to know just how many I own but a lot of my books are currently packed up in boxes and in the garage. A lack of space is so annoying.
The number of books used to be significantly higher. I honestly could not ever part with a book. It's my dream to someday own a home with enough space for a dedicated library. I'm determined to make that dream a reality, too. Anyhow, after having our first child, my husband convinced me that I had to let go of a large chunk of my books. I knew he was right but it was a difficult task to undertake. Still, roughly 500 books is quite a lot. Hey, it dawns on me that this number is probably close to double when I add in children's books. Yes, I'm passing my love and addiction for books on to my kids.
It's always nice to see your kids taking up the reading habit. I can't say that my son is quite the book lover that I am...but he does have a large book case full.
ReplyDeleteThat's so wonderful that you share a love of reading with your kids! I think it's the greatest thing you can share with them. I have a couple hundred including 5 boxes of kid lit for my future classroom :D
