Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about keeping books.
Do you keep all the books you ever buy? Just the ones you love? Just collectibles? What do you do with the ones you don’t want to keep?
There is no way I could have kept all the books I have ever read. I have always dreamed about having a libray room with built-in floor to ceiling book cases and a few very comfortable reading chairs. If that dream ever came true, my family would never see me, because thats where I would be. However, even with that, I wouldn't be able to store all of the books. I try to pass on my books to family and friends that do enjoy reading. If they feel that a book doesn't interest them, I then donate to different organizations. I could never put a book in the garbage. That is just so wrong...to just toss it and not give someone else the opportunity to enjoy it. I do keep those that have a personalization by the author.

I can't even imagine what my home would be like if I kept all the books I've read over the years!
Glad you enjoyed Now and Then.
Have a great reading week.
I need more friends and family that love to read..or another way to get rid of some of my least loved books.
I keep my books. Here's Mine.
thanks for the comment on my coffee - it is gross! I don't have well-water & not sure about the neighbors. Got a few ideas though & I will ask my neighbor! Thanks. Enjoy your coffee - Can I have some? :-(

Ooh, Karen Rose is supposed to be a great author! I can't wait to see what you think of Silent Scream.
