For the Love of Books
I purged books yesterday. Books are always a difficult item for me to clean out, and get rid of.
I have a bookshelf dedicated to homesteading books, herbal books, etc. I have a bookshelf simply for my "how to" writing books, and a bookshelf for my fiction books.
In my living room, we have a large bookshelf that still contains non-fiction books from my homeschooling days. We kept most of them.
I guess I have a terrible time donating non-fiction, considering how the internet is taking over the book reading industry. My one college daughter has to get her books online, and read them from the computer. They are not issued most of their books in book form anymore. So sad. Even one college book store in my home town closed for that very reason.
