Nope... don't want to know. Ha ha. I did a quick estimate of the big bookcase wall behind the Christmas tree, and there are at least 1,000 there, but there are other bookcases around the house. At least I don't have towers of books stacked in corners like some of my colleagues.

One day I will build glass doors over that big bookcase, because I have horrendous allergies every time I try to dust all those books!
We had a large room that was wall to wall bookcases filled with books before Katrina.
Some were first additions, signed by the author, some were just first additions and some were just IMHO classics, Hornett Kane, Steinbeck, Faulkner, Hemingway, Pearl Buck, Fitzgerald, Leon Uris I could go on and on. Some author;s we had most every book they had written. They will never be replaced, some can't be replaced. there isn't another copy of Hornett Kane's first book inscribed to his Grandmother in the world.
Count yourself lucky @Windrider every time you sneeze, I hope you never loose a single one of your books.
To add insult to injury the insurance company acted like they were paperback copies of some recent romance novel. :(
