Welcome to all Book Blog Hop Visitors
How many books do you own? This can include books in your to-be-read (TBR) pile(s) and books you have already read that are on your keeper shelf.
Once I read a book unless I really love it I do not generally have a sentimental attachment to a physical book. I in fact way prefer reading on my Ipad to reading old fashioned books. I have now about 250 books. Over the years I have sold, traded, given away and truth be told thrown out may times that number of books. I know this seems blasphemous to many but what I love is literature, not physical objects. I do have a few volumes I treasure but very few.
My core interests include short stories of all periods and countries, Asian fiction, Irish Literature and history, the Japanese novel, modern fiction, classics and contemporary quality fiction.
I will follow back anyone who follows me and will return all visits. Just leave me a comment please

Mel, I'm sorry about Mr C. That's a cute picture of him among the stuffed toys.
ReplyDeleteI have over 200 books that include nearly 75 to-be-read books. Two days ago, I picked up a dozen used and secondhand paperbacks for Rs.10 each. Apart from books I also collect comic-books and I have nearly a 1,000 comics as well. Nowadays I have been downloading and reading a lot of copyright-free stories and novels from the 1850 to 1950 period. I give away most of the books I have read.
