The Book Cull
I've decided after many years of book buying to finally get rid of some of them. I am someone who does actually re-read books - I really the whole Aubrey/Maturin saga every year for example - so I've long avoided divesting myself of the shelves full of novels.
But the truth is there are plenty of books I'm not going to read again, either due to them not being any good or that my tastes have changed - and in the case of Tom Clancy novels that covers both.
So this evening I'm going through the shelves and seeing just how many of my books I really do want to keep and read again.

I keep on meaning to post this, but incase you didn't see it I particularly liked Charlie Brooker's view on too many books

He makes a good point. We've some unwatched DVD boxsets and a pile of books as yet unread. Plus there are plenty of games I haven't finished yet. Thankfully I've got a very good mp3 player with all my collection on so I don't have records I haven't listened to.
