    What do you do with all of your books?

    Do you read / review e-books or paperbacks?  I mostly accept paperbacks and it gets so overwhelming to keep them all.  What do you do with them once they start to pile up everywhere?  Mine are on my bookshelves, in corners of the bedroom, dining room, living room, etc.  I even have a few in an empty kitchen cabinet.  Lol.  I've donated some of them to Better World Books for charity donations but I have such a hard time parting with the ones I really loved and I really loved a lot of them.  See More
