I used to lend out a lot of the books which I owned. If I enjoyed it, I would in my wild enthusiasm lend it out, until I found that a lot of the better ones were not being returned. One specific book which I loved and lent to a friend(?) who passed it on to her friend, who then departed for foreign shores taking my much loved book with her brought me to a screeching halt. Now I will give a book to someone if I don't love it enough to keep.

Our local Animal Welfare thrift shop got literally hundreds of books which I discarded when I got an ereader.

Cheers.
