General and Specific Theories of Literary Exasperation

[wechsler]

General:

ARGH I own too many books!

Specific:

ARGGGGHHHH I own too many books I've never read!

(Having shed most of the cruft a year ago, though, it's a pretty good collection)

If that's true what I actually don't have enough of is *flat*.

Ditto... I got rid of a load of books on BookMooch.com, but it appears that the books I do want are either ridiculously popular (and people want to keep hold of them) or completely obscure and no-one has them. So now I still have a load of books to get rid of, and a load of unused points. Hey ho, guess I'll be making a trip to Notting Hill Gate in the near future.

Seconded, although I concede the point made in reply does bear relevance. If you run out of wall your only option is to start building some kind of maze of free-standing bookcases in the living room ;)

I concur.
