Book Blogger Hop: How Many Books?

Book Blogger Hop

This Week's Question:
How many books do you own? This can include books in your to-be-read (TBR) pile(s) and books you have already read that are on your keeper shelf.

My Answer:

363

There are a few books missing of my shelves that are being borrowed by friends and fam but other than that this is my current collection. I'm constantly getting more books though, so my number keeps increasing!

WOOOOWWW!!! Abbi, that's A LOT of books, how wonderful!!! Thanks so much for sharing these pictures :) I was clicking on each picture to get a closer look, you have SUCH good taste in books from what I see and the shelves are SOOO clean! Are all these shelves in different rooms or all in the same room?
Love that you have all of Ronie Kendig's books and so many contemporary ones :)

I have about 60 books on my shelves and most of them are winnings that I haven't had time to read yet. I also have about 45 ebooks that I need to make time for :) And I have over 100 books on my wishlist that I don't own yet.

Thanks again for sharing your book collection; love how each shelf is so nicely decorated with candles, pictures and knick knacks....nicely done Abbi :)
Blessings!

I try not to let my pile get too big. I only have one shelf it is starting to spill over :)

Here's my post:

@Shan-Thanks!
@Kara-Thanks for the compliment on my taste in books and the look of my shelves! A decent amount of my book choice need to be credited to my oldest sister Katie who was always quick to share new good books! It's only recently that I have been branching out on my own and getting new books! As for the cleanliness of my shelves that is a rare occurrence! I live in a room in the basement of our house and it is next to impossible to keep the dust off. I recently rearranged my books and the shelves got a decent cleaning in the process. The bookshelves are all in one room-a bedroom that I share with my sister. And lastly on the amount-I have asked for nothing but books for Christmas and Birthdays for quite a few years now and with 8 siblings that adds up after awhile! I also bargain hunt and wait patiently (HA) for the best deal.
