Are you sure you didn't add an extra zero by accident? Where do you keep all these books? I would imagine that all those books would take up an entire room.
No, thanks, it's 1500. My wife bugs me every year to sell some.
I've been buying and saving books all my life. I started buying them by the dozens in the 2000's. I bought collections of books withdrawn from library circulation for various reasons. I was ordering from alibris every week. I own every Patrick Dennis. I probably have 200 books just by Isaac Asimov. The largest of them are all nonfiction.
The majority are paperbacks, but I have quite a number of large books too.
Lots of old texts and computer manuals. Many 700-900 pages.
Asimov's guide to the Bible is like 1400 pages.
I have several stuffed book cases and cabinets, and many cardboard boxes.
No room in our house is without books, except bathrooms.
Two of my closets are storing boxes of books.
The garage collection is my car manuals. Dozens. My IH truck repair manual is 6" thick.
(Also a dozen reloading manuals.)
There's probably 600 comic books too. None of them too valuable.
Big collection of
Dark Horse Comics.
I have every copy of
The Thing, and every
Magnus: Robot Fighter 4000AD including the re-boot collections.
I also have 11 banker's boxes full of Pentium era PC games from '90 thru 2005, stuffed in the attic.
Maybe my grand kids will sell them as memorabilia.
BTW I can't find Bleak House. I put it down half-way thru and it's been reshelved!
I don't have any index. It's a messy collection. I must simply hunt it down.
