Few months back, I lost about 5000+ books after my laptop HDD failed. Fortunately, I had backed up my library on the cloud. After that, I copied all to my reader too, and now I do not delete any book (unless a real bad one!) even after reading them. Although it becomes a tedious job to select your next 'to be read' book on a jumbled reader, but it is better than becoming 'bookless' at times.
