how many books do you own?

6 bookshelves, some 2 layers deep. Lotsa books. I wonder if people think that it's strange when they visit... because I think it's strange to go into a house with no books visible. Anyone else feel that way?

Considering that I live in a tinyhouse, I would say about 500+! And no they are not all on one book shelf.

I wish to own a collection of physical books in the future. For now, I only read digital books, i.e. ebooks and pdfs, from the internet and other reading sites like Wattpad. Physical books in my country are not affordable, expensive to be honest.

Thousands. Most are used paperbacks. But I also have about 400 free kindle and books to review as well...convenient for travel.

Printed books, the inventory is goes up to 927 books. but in digital format, a little bit over 5.000. This is why I'm so out of touch with current books, I hardly ever buy books anymore.

Yes, when I walk into someone's home and see no books at all I am taken aback. I kind of just assume everyone reads SOMETHING but then I'm reminded that a lot of people don't read and are definitely not as interested in reading as I am.

I used to have quite a big collection which I have had to leave behind each time we moved. Now, I have very few books.. about close to 20. There rest, close to 100 belong to my daughters.

Gosh, I have no idea. I’ve become a little ridiculous about the books. I have as many bookshelves as will fit in my apartment and I still don’t always have enough room for new books. Yes, there are books I could get rid of to make room for my favorites. I just hate getting rid of good books!
