Books. In my apartment.
More books. In my apartment.
And yet more books, in my apartment. But these are the ones I'm keeping.
These are the ones I'm donating, six bag full, as part of the biggest Grunge Queen apartment re-org to date.
Yes, I am decluttering massively. A former English major, I amassed a whack of books in the past - books which I have hung onto and faithfully moved from apartment to apartment, but books which I've never opened since completing schooling a decade ago.
So bye-bye 18th century novels, Canadian Confederation poetry volumes, and good books I've read once but will never read again.
This is only the beginning.
Gee you really are cleaning house.
ReplyDeleteBooks are very hard to part with, and the moment you let go is the moment you want to read that certain book that you gave away. But you can always get a copy so why have all the clutter.
Good for you.
It feels good to purge.
Also very lighter if you are planning on moving.
The Witch, I know they are hard to part with - I have hung onto most of 'em for 15 years! Felt sooo good to drop the whack off at the thrift store! I could get addicted to this clean out thing! And you *are* right: would def be easier to move if the load were infinitely lighter!
ReplyDeleteAll those books, you should try the Amazon FBA program to sell them.
ReplyDeleteKV Creative Designs - thanks for tip! I did think about selling the lot to a local second-hand seller but they tend to give very little for books so I just figured I'd donate them to my local thrift shop. But there are more books to get rid of so I will check it out!
