There is reading for pleasure and reading for work.
When it comes to reading for pleasure I read one book at a time, and I don't really see why I should have that many books with me.
When it comes to reading for work I indeed need more books, but I don't think that we were discussing the price & value of work-related books.

If you read fast enough, and you do nothing else, you might read 1 book/day. That means that you could read the 25k books that you have in a little over 68 years. Do you really need to carry all of them with you?
