Sorting through my books

I love books.

I have boxes and boxes of books. I have already given away 10 boxes and still have more.

I was wondering today just how much money I must have spent on all these books!  😳

    Money better spent than on restaurant meals. I hear you, though. Even second hand, those books add up. I'm so grateful for the public library!!

    I definitely agree that it's better spent on books than restaurant meals 😊

    (9) I love books to! I once got 6 boxes of random books from scholastic and needed a second book case. LOL

    That would be a good idea if anyone wanted them. I thought about giving them to charity but the only charity that would take books had no car parking close by and they are heavy to carry far

    It's best to not try to calculate such things! 🤣

    I am finding it really hard to dispose of them but there's just no way they can fit in my new house 😢

    What does that have to do with books?

    You should start a neighborhood library.

    Unfortunately, not the kind of neighbourhood that would be interested. I live in a very multi cultural neighborhood and I find that very few of the books I put outside are taken.
