    One side of my bedroom wall was a built-in bookshelf. We’re talking about 4m in length and 2m in height. Some shelves had double-stacked books.

    But you are right; the logistics are nearly impossible. I moved out of my parents’ house in the mid-90s, but they still keep most of my books there for me. I have my own house and family now, but my wife threatened divorce if I “cluttered” our house with all the books. My hope lies in my kids inheriting my love for reading and bringing over my books themselves.

      Storms, that would drive me nuts. Then again, I don’t have 1800 books. 😅
