Something that amazed me lately was that I brought 113 books to the used bookstore! I went through my books (chapter books, middle grade, YA, and adult) and was RUTHLESS. We live in a townhouse and there's not a ton of room; we are not getting more shelves anytime soon. I got rid of books that were signed to me, special editions, and more. Basically if I didn't think I was going to re-read it, I got rid of it! Usually I am not in a mood like this, so I took advantage. And then, even more amazing? I didn't buy a single book for me when we traded the books in! I bought some picture books for our collection, and some books to giveaway, but no books for me. Don't call me a minimalist just yet, or maybe do! We'll see how things go.
