Actually, they don't take up any space in my head - for the most part, I forget what I have read at the same time I delete it from my kindle. That is why I keep even books I have read in Calibre - otherwise I would buy them over and over . . .

I thought this was a place to whine (or wine), not actually try and control myself. I can't think of any reason to actually put the breaks on - it isn't expensive cause a lot are free or really, really cheap. It doesn't take up any room. And most of all -- if I stopped, my husband would just spend the $$ on his bike collection anyhow. But it really impressed my daughter when she saw it the other day. Just further proof her mother is clueless.
