I thought to myself the other day when I finished reading yet another book and put it on the already full bookshelf that I should really get a Kindle or something. 

We are moving to a smaller place, hopefully soon, and I'm planning a longer trip abroad in a year or so.

So I'm trying to get rid of things that I don't need to make things easier, for the future. 

What I wonder is, why is it so hard to get rid of books, why do we keep them?

Like we would read them again?

Or is it just me? 

What is it with books? Clothes and other stuff I have no problem with to give away or just bin. But books...
