BOOK ME!!
I have books all over the house!I usually keep the one I’m reading close by though. I used to think I wanted a library then realized how much space that would actually be. And I just saw an episode of Hoarders, they had 500,000 books. I could barely breathe & that was just on TV! Now I keep only the ones I love & pass on the rest. I’m pretty sure I would love all of these!
