I have a fondness for books, but the reality was that I could no longer read them. I need larger and better spaced text. The novels are all gone although I keep finding stashes from my late sister as we gradually downsize stuff. By this time next year, Mom and I should be down to 3 SMALL bookshelves of mostly cookbooks and needlework books. Heck, I have away all the dictionaries already. As to DVDs and CDs, we have two custom bookshelves for those and there are now spaces, albeit limited due to the closure sale from Audiobookstand.com. Our situation is different. My Mom is 84 and I'm likely to move to senior housing myself a year or two after she passes, so having less now will be better in the long run. She totally loves her ereader.
