Those were reasons to move house. Ttwice now, but this house looks like a keeper with plenty of space to house all the books I'll never buy anymore

I felt a shiver going down my spine just reading that... My parents always taught me to respect books. That means: never write in them, never fold them, always try to keep the spine intact (not all books will cooperate with that though...)
I even use bookmarks in magazines...
