Just bought and re-read Catcher in the Rye a few weeks ago to see if I missed "something" the first time around. Still didn't get it the second time.




My least favorite well loved book. I thought it was awful.

To the OP, a few hundred. Would be more, but I stopped buying them years ago when I moved digital. I miss collecting them, though

Over 200.

I can’t get into reading shite on Kindle, and I never get rid of my books.

Probably 60-70 kids books. Zero books that anyone over 10 years old would find interesting.

About 100 physical books. I am Reading more on Kindle the last few years. I thought I would hate it and did at first, but the Paperwhite works well.

Also listen to audiobooks on commute. Right now listening to Atomic Habits by James Clear. Good stuff.

I have more coloring books, but I ate all the crayons.

Hundreds. I’m an avid military history reader. I bet I have 50-60 just on Vietnam.

Several hundred, perhaps a thousand, including paperbacks.

Too many.

My grandmother was a librarian and my mother likes to hoard books and I've inherited that trait from both of them.

At least 200 but that’s including my children’s books but a fair amount of them are college textbooks.
