How many books are within ten feet of you right now?
For myself, I tally something in the neighborhood of ~430 in the shelves or stacked on the desk of my own room.
Pictured is one of the places I idly purchase books from on a regular basis in my region.
They're relatively inexpensive, but they do keep track of scarcity of editions, so it can creep up depending on title, they also possess a titanic inventory.

Thats a beautiful shop OP, you're lucky. I dig the natural light and iron heater especially.
My room is 10x10 soooo. There's probably ~350 books 'round me right now. No, you can't have a picture.

Around 266 physical books, and 1069 ebooks. I wish I had more books, but I get books in my mother tongue from a library, and I mostly download books written in English from the Internet, since they are usually quite expensive where I live, and at the same time it is easy to find them on the Internet.
Brandon Mitchell

>within ten feet of you right now? i'm in my home office so behind me there's a bookcase full of technical and work-related books and there's a little bookcase near the door that has a couple of shelves of travel guides etc and graphic novels. In total a few dozen books maybe.
the bookcase behind me also has a few random oversized books that wouldn't fit anywhere else. among them are julian cope's the modern antiquarian, the complete moomins deluxe edition, and a book about erotic photography.

Dominic Phillips
not many, 30-40 maybe? I tend to sell books when I'm done and download the digital version.
sure those 430 books look nice now, but wait until its a few years down the line and youre moving from apartment to apartment, those books quickly become a burden.
Evan Rivera
I have a smaller version of this in my city. All the good stuff is picked over and you can never find shit. Even the owner has to take a guess where I will find something. We spent 20 minutes looking for Goethe and I ended up finding a single copy of Faust in a pile of German plays in the back.

I don't always roleplay on the internet, but when I do it's as an incomprehensibly aggressive boor.
