Booking Through Thursday

A weekly meme about (mostly) books and reading.

Size Matters June 30, 2011

What’s the largest your personal library has ever been? What’s the greatest number of books you’ve ever owned at one time? (Estimates are fine.)

Is your collection NOW the biggest it’s ever been? Or have you down-sized?

What’s the fewest number of books you’ve ever owned (not counting your pre-reading years)?

Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!

    I don’t have a huge collection of books, but my collection has steadily grown over time. I have given away a few books, but most of the time I keep the ones that I really like.
