(At least I entered them all into LibraryThing first so I know which books I have read and don't buy duplicates.)

Isn't there a public library that accepts book gifts in your neighborhood? I always keep my books in good shape, sell some of in the flea markets and give the rest to a hospital library. People are already beaming when I come with a tub of books every 3 months or so.

Trouble is: I have so many GOOD books that I love to death and I just can't get rid of them. Feels almost like getting rid of a limb. So my collection (and my wife's) keeps growing and growing
