Over 1000 books. Novels. Other books, like textbooks and such, are separate and tend to habitat the bottom shelf because of their height and sheer weight!
Write from the heart and nothing can go wrong. It's when you write from the wallet that the feeling goes away.

I honsetly have no idea. Ever six months my papa makes me go thorugh all my books and sent some to le charity shop to make room.

I'm banned form buying any more until after christmas. Last time it was my birthday I was asked which books I wanted only to find I'd bought them all the week before.

Most of my books like in my bed. It is like a big bed-box. My Manga, and the books I'm reading at the moment live on my shelf.
please grant me my small wish; (love me to the marrow of my bones)

Everyone throws my books away. I'm not even allowed to read newspapers (my family members are all weird XD ) and since being banned from buying books I haven't had anything *new* to read.

The bed is the best place to hide books :P

Uhm, most of my books are laying dusty in the bacement somewhere... 'Round with all the other things my family and I was supposed to unpack after moving back to Poland like 3 years ago, lol.
But honestly, I keep and buy only the books I really buy. Mostly I end up borrowing them from the library and I'm completely satisdied with that. I mean, with certain exeptions, I can read one book 2 times every half year, not more. It just boring otherwise. I end up borrowing books from everyone around and not knowing what is which instead of buying something that I will read those4 ties a year...
-Which doesnt mean that i don;t have any books, lol.

Several minutes later... 126! And still growing :)

Sometimes, it's best not to question your friends. Just help them dump the body into the river.

Even if the voices aren't real, they have pretty good ideas.

Writing isn't an excuse for insanity. It's a reason.

A few hundred at least. There is no way I could count them all.
There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.

I just wiped out most of my collection at Half-Price books (mainly kiddie books like Animal Ark that I don't read anymore) so I only have 100, maybe 125 novels right now. I'm quickly rebuilding, though. :) Plus I have at least a hundred pet related magazines.

John McClane: Oh, yeah? Why not?
Tony: Because you're a policeman. There are rules for policemen.
John McClane: Yeah. That's what my captain keeps telling me

500 bought in the past two years.
I'm gonna estimate for my lifetimes worth of books. Probably >3000
