@Aqua-Letifer You inspire me Aqua. I’ve been downsizing for years now, but have this little remaining collection of books from my dad. Early prairie homesteading, farming, ranching stuff. I’ve no one to leave these books to, have been looking for a small town museum or something similar, but ya know, I might just keep them. They don’t take up a lot of space. I like that they’re from my dad and his dad & grandpa before him.

That's great, blondie! I'm going to give mine to my daughter if she wants them (I'm going to try to get her hooked early but you never know with these things), but if that doesn't work I'll donate them to a library or writer's center. My grandmother would really like that.

He'd definitely know.
I go back to mine all the time. I'd be silly to get rid of them.

I once considered suggesting to Mrs. Phibes that we could get rid of all her old books and slowly replace them with Kindle versions.
Luckily I came to my senses before opening my stupid mouth, because the alternative would have been coming to my senses in a hospital ward at some point later.
