Hmm.. I haven't ever counted.. maybe around a hundred or more.. I have no idea. I definately take after my parents.. they have about 7-8 standard size bookshelves filled with books. Plus some boxes filled w/them which don't fit on the shelves. I used to live just a short walk from a HUGE bookstore; which did both used and new.. so it was very tempting to go in there and pick up some new books every week. So of course I haven't even read all of the books which I own... I mainly bought them because I WILL read them... hehe.. Although it is just a small number of books which I haven't read.

I have a list of all my books on my Livejournal.
Not counting my complete Animorphs series, I have a shelf (well, it's not so much a shelf than a piece of wood mounted to the wall) with all my books on it. They numbered around 80 at last count I think, but I bought 11 more books since then.

I'd have a lot more, but I get to go book shopping only infrequently.

I think several hundreds. I have... tons and tons of books. I just can't take books from the library, if I like a book I need to have it around in case I want to check a passage again or reread it. Sometimes, I'll have to count them. And get a 3rd bookshelf, because I have no room left.

About 300 hundred. I have read ALL of them. Even the dictionary. Well not the whole thing.
