That was me also. My bookshelves were overflowing and I had boxes stacked everywhere. Almost worse was that I had to severly cull the books I bought and only keep my very favorites. That sometimes meant I ended up rebuying a book I donated then wanted again. Now I can keep them all. I've replaced about half my boxed favorites and hope to replace the rest as they become available and the price drops. It's wonderful to have room again. I will no longer buy paper novels or that kind of nonfiction that one reads more or less like a novel.
