I thought my close to a thousand or more including Kendal, Audible, and Books I found in the wild was allot. The three programs I own on my desktop, and the two on my phone, and the 6 text to speech voices I bought for my desktop was a big insane. I mean really, no WAY will I ever read all the books I have before my time on this earth is over. I am 58 years old.

Then throw in the two ways of finding pretty much everything online for the most part. I thought It was just a bit much. After seeing some replies to the threads, looks like I am in good company, you guys have WAY more than I do.

Nice thing is, if the book I start does not get my attention in a chapter or two at the most, I will simply move on to another. I go through my phases, I will read a ton, then take a break for a week or two, then do it all again.

I just bought a huge box set of ghost stories on kendal, it was a dollar. Most my books I buy are under 5 bucks. I do have mine mostly organized. By Authors allong with a text file to tell me what the book is about. Then I have bios, and wrestling bios, and rock star bios, then books in series that I love.

Fun fact, I did find a web site, thats free, that I can turn like a three part series into one large ebook. Just google it, its there and works great.

Thanks for all the replies, this has been a fun thread. You all have a nice day.
