Ranters and Reviewers discussion

Hi everyone! What books did you separate ways with and what pushed you to get rid of them? :-)

I hardly ever get rid of books, honestly.

My dad has "misplaced" some books he hates.

I hardly buy books, so never have the issue of getting rid of them.
My bookshelf (which is basically a random shelf in my cupboard) comprises of 20 books, which I don’t think I’ll ever get rid of! :)

I used to regularly "clean out" my bookshelves to get rid of some older books/books of my childhood that I didn't have a connection to, but from the books I read now, the only ones I gave away were the first two books of the Outlander series because I really did not like them and knew I would never even finish reading them...

My dad jokes about burning my books :(

I constantly unhaul books. I unhaul books that I really didn't like and ones that I don't think I'll reread in the future. I never unhaul books that I haven't at least tried to read.

My bookshelf is limited, so when I own some that I did not enjoy very much (or those I don’t not feel attached to) I put it aside and donate them months. However, some of my 1-2 stars books have tons of annotations on page and I feel bad to give them with my notes on it. So, I hide those 😅.

@ATheReader
Yes! Some I’d unhauled dare not necessarily horrible, but I think other readers will like them more. Sometimes, I even forget that I used to own them 🤣. I do unhaul those I DNF’ed though.

anything middle grade that doesn't fit on my shelf anymore goes directly to my little sister

i don't think i've ever at least not intentionally thrown out a book before

Never enough reading !

I’ve got a big bag of books waiting to go to the charity shop. I can’t even remember exactly what I got rid of 😂

Gonna getting rid of Blood & Honey and Gods & Monsters. I disliked B&H and loathed G&M (I have rant reviews for both).
