LET’S TALK BOOKS

Novels, self-help, recipe, business, non-fiction, magazines!  Is it beginning to look like a well-worn library in your home?  Are bookshelves crammed tight with old hardcovers or torn and worn paperbacks? 

Pay it forward!  You can donate these treasures to your local library and if they can’t be shelved they will sell them at book sales benefitting the library for new books. 

You may read it again?  Seriously?  How many books have you re-read?  Let’s talk minimal – as in e-books.  Books are meant to be read and convey information to you, the reader.  That’s the special meaning behind a book… not sitting on your shelf.  When you touch the book does it bring you pleasure?  Perhaps it’s a limited edition or a classic.  That’s fine! Keep it! 

Someday means never.  If you say, “someday I will read this…” you won’t.  If you’ve read it, move on.  If it’s truly a treasure, keep it.

There is one fun way to display nice art books… stack them in a colorful tower in a corner of the room.  Just hope the one you want to read isn’t at the bottom!
