Ah books. I have a relative (one of those second cousin relations I can never name properly) who collects books, even ones he doesn't read. He just keeps adding rooms onto his house - there's one sde with a few rooms tacked on one after the other. This freaked my mum out and she always seems to be concerned when coming to my place that I will show the same tendencies :)

My new rule is to keep books I love rather than just one that were OK. I figure we'll both fit into the unit then even with new additions.

Of course my give away pile has sat near the door for ages as it's quite hard to actually take the next step, but I do have a plan :)
