Unfortunately I have a limited book supply. Tragically, my house is so small my mom, dad, two brothers and I can barely fit in it let alone books. I have:

Regular books: 32

That's it =( I'd have so many more if it were up to me.

I have 196 fictional books, not counting, classics, poetry, literature, and riligious books. If I counted that, it'd probably be around 300...or more. Lol. I like to buy my own books...plus I used to homeschool so I got a lot of good books then. XD

So could mine. Our book collections could take over the world.

I am actually not sure about exact numbers, but I have upwards of 800 books. About ten of those are miscellaneous. This does not count my children's books.

I have no idea and I'm too lazy to count. I have five different bookshelves that hold maybe fifty each. Then I've got a ton of books in boxes. :)

I have more paperbacks than hardbacks.

A lot more. When I'm rich and famous all of them will be hardbacks.
