One side of my bedroom wall was a built-in bookshelf. We’re talking about 4m in length and 2m in height. Some shelves had double-stacked books.

But you are right; the logistics are nearly impossible. I moved out of my parents’ house in the mid-90s, but they still keep most of my books there for me. I have my own house and family now, but my wife threatened divorce if I “cluttered” our house with all the books. My hope lies in my kids inheriting my love for reading and bringing over my books themselves.
