Roughly 3500 volumes. Lots of Victorian British lit. and criticism of same. Lots of US history, particularly Appalachia (all eras) and 19th-century Western frontier. A bookcase full of psychology and related topics. More than a few thrillers. And a small but growing non-English language collection, mostly Scottish Gaelic and Swedish (some French, German, and Icelandic, but I'm slow af reading those languages).

I downsized by half when I moved and then did the same again when I moved again. Some of what I got rid of was useless to me, but I regret a lot of it. So... knowing I'll never mass-downsize again, I'm more selective in what I buy, which has slowed the growth of my library. Just the same, given the average lifespan, I'm looking at over 10,000 before I die. My library is actually part of my death planning because I don't want my kids to be stuck dealing with it, lol.

Maybe not the worst, but the film version of I Am Legend is nothing like the book. The film is fine as entertainment if you don't know the original, but the ending of the novella is far superior.

Having kids definitely lowered my tolerance for the really dark stuff, especially if that stuff involves children. I've gotten tougher now that they're mostly grown, but it still hits me harder than when I was young and child-free.
