    How big is your collection of reading material?

    By this time, somewhere between 2 and 3 thousand I'm guessing.

    Exactly where do you keep all of those books? I know a regular bookshelf just doesn't cut it.

    No it doesn't, there's my book case, the two extra shelves over my bed, three stacks behind the door which nearly touch the ceiling, about four or five shorter piles on the floor by the case, then most of the three bookcases in the office, the empty cupboards in my grandmother's house across the alley, and a big storage tote down in the basement.

    My wife has owned easily twice that many over the years but she donates them to the library when they reach a certain point. That's another reason I'm glad she got a Nook (Barnes & Noble's answer to a Kindle) last year. Like NY, I probably have about 30 "keepers".
