How Many Novels Do You Own?

[Spirit]

Simple thread; how many novels do you own and how many of them have you read?

For me, i own about 50 books and my gf has read pretty much all of them... as for myself.. i'd say maybe about 20, i know, terrible (most of them weren't very big either).

I'm a person who loves to read books, I have lots of them in my house. My sisters also love reading them.

For me, I have over 250 novels, my eldest sister has 300 and my second eldest has 365 novels. That's a lot, I know.

Oof, I've never had the patience to sit and count. I own somewhere over 100, and have read over three times as many.

I primarily read fanfiction and have a pretty big collection of stories (about 360 on my Kindle atm and growing every week) that I have read and loved or stories that I will read later on. Some as small as a couple of pages, while others as long as 1000-2000 pages or more. So I love reading, I just don't have a lot of books. I have about one shelf dedicated to fantasy, then two shelves dedicated to youth and adventure books. Of the books I have, I have read probably about 90-95% of them, as I have been given a couple of books that I haven't read yet.

No idea exactly how many novels I own, but probably somewhere north of 300. Of the books in my house I've definitely read all but a handful.

I keep an inventory list for personal use, and it has over 400 on it currently. I have been collecting many books at the thrift store in the past couple years, so when I see one I am remotely interested in, I purchase it. The amount of books I have bought has increased more rapidly than I can read them, so I have not read all 400 yet, but I am probably at around 300.

I'm running out of room for all of them though....

 

[A Link In Time]

Hmm. All the books I've read over my school years totals about 50.

Add about 150 books on my bookshelf and probably fifty on each of my brother's.

~300 novels more or less.

I can't really put an accurate number on the amount of books I own. I read lots, not as much as I used to, but a lot more than my friends. I'm also part of a pretty big family, we all like to read books, so I'm sure we have 200+, most of which I own. I like to read every single book I have, so the numbers are relatively similar - I'd imagine.

 

[CynicalSquid]

I don't have enough. I only have 48, and I haven't read most of them.

 

[violover64]

12, but i read so many more. i love reading. it is one of my favorite things to do. I love all books

 

[Not Take Mirror]

I own about 100. I used to have about twice that many until I donated about half of them. I figure, why own something I'm not likely to re-read? I mostly keep reference type books and a few of my favorite novels like the Harry Potter series.

 

[Ventus]

I don't even know what a novel is, but I'll say one: The Great Gatsby.

 

[Terminus]

Many. I'll post a picture of my bookcase.

Needless to say I have a lot of Science Fiction.

 

[Koosholts]

None, I own e-books.

But who owns books? Hasn't anyone ever heard of a public library...?

 

[Mudora]

I love to read so I own many novels. In my home, I would say that I have at least 200+.
