According to my wife, I have too many, but I say I just don’t have enough bookshelves... I collect books like kids collect baseball cards.

I went ahead and sent you a friend request. Always looking to meet new people who share my reading interests.

I can help you out by selling you lots of old baseball cards. :D
I own 5,375 books. My eleven year old son owns over one hundred books.

Well, I'll have to make some room first. I have over 3,000 already. I'm actually currently selling some on-line. I tell myself that this'll help with the bills, then I turn around and spend the money on books. Oh, well.

I recently started keeping an inventory of my books on my Libib app and clearly I'm nowhere near to having all my books counted in some way. According to my app, I only have 129 (RFLMAO). I will have to make it a priority of mine to get them all counted.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.
I have over 500 actual books (not counting encyclopedias, dictionaries, etc.) and at least 1000 comic books. E-books? IDK, but probably under 100.

Wow! That's beautiful to hear.
