Ah, Books

Matt and Katy's Books: the ones circled in red are the ones we actually "need".
Like Turtle and Phoenix, one of my biggest concerns is books. So Matt and I went through our collection.
The image on the left is what we had remaining after a first-pass weeding. Pretty intimidating. So rather than thinking: “what can we get rid of?” we went at it from the angle of: “what do we really want to keep?” That made it much easier.
Some will go to BookMooch, some (like our old dusty textbooks) will fetch a pretty penny on Amazon, and others may end up in the Great Library in the Sky… there are some books that even Goodwill doesn’t want.
It’s hard to get rid of the old favorites, but being a librarian has taught me that information flows everywhere. You can dip into the stream at any given point and usually pull out the book that you’re after.
