If I think I will read them again, I keep them. But an awful lot of books have gone into boxes and on their way to Half Price Books for sale or trade. I figure that if I take tons of books in and get a small credit for them and buy just a few new(er) books (it is overstocks and used books) then I have come out ahead and have more space!
I tend only to buy craft books now and only when they are on sale. I have gotten to the point where I can walk into a bookstore and walk right out without buying anything. I feel terrible because I know we need bookstores, but I honestly don't have the space. And I am WAY more likely to read an e-book!
