Before I bought my Reader, I'd started weeding out the bookcases. I had a plan of rereading every book to decide whether to keep it or donate to the local library book sale. I still plan to donate the majority of my books but I probably won't reread them all first. The hardest part of the process is finding time to sort the books and lug them downstairs to the car.

I only have two bookcases. My goal is to repurpose one for craft supply storage. Therefore, the books have to go. I'll keep my favorites and will probably purchase paper replacements for a few rather decrepit looking books that I've had since high school. Life in a backpack is rough on paperback novels.

I'm replacing some of my favorites with audiobooks. In some cases, listening to the audio is better than reading the book.
