Giving away books.

Inspired by Marie Kondo, I freed some of my books from the cluttered shelf where I had packed them and gave them away to friends. Sparked a lot of fun conversations. The remaining books now have space to breathe on the shelf. I've uncovered the books I haven't read yet. There are still lots left that I'm not yet ready to let go of. Somehow it feels as if the books I have loved define me and I find it hard to let go even if I haven't re-read them in years. I feel I have trapped them here - and books need to keep moving, opening new minds as they go. Book swaps sound like a great idea - must try soon!
