Out with the books
So what I’ve been doing the past few days is asking myself “Am I ever likely to read this book again, or am I just keeping it out of inertia or a belief that this book is the sort of thing I ought to have around?”. I’ve asked it a few hundred times, and it turns out that I’m only answering yes to the first part about 20% of the time. Then the books that fail get stuffed into boxes and hauled out to the curb. Except for the Liavek books, which I brought home to ladymondegreen.
(BTW, drcpunk, do you have your copy of Fevre Dream, the old mass-market paperback with the white cover? I think the copy I’ve got is one I bought used at a con a few years ago, and I returned the one I borrowed from you.)
Even throwing out the comics is less painful than I’d anticipated, though it takes longer. I’m not likely to decide I suddenly need to flip through Dilvish, the Damned before throwing it out, but those Grant Morrison JLA issues, well.
