What happens to a reader’s personal library when life forces tough choices?

In this video, I talk openly about why I’m starting to rethink the books on my shelves — what I’ll keep, what I’ll let go, and why this matters not just to me but to any serious reader who has ever wondered what legacy really means. I reference Michael K. Vaughn’s video on his own book collection and the questions he raises about thinning out a lifetime of reading.
Whether you read on paper, e-reader, or both, these are questions about purpose more than possession: what counts as a book worth keeping, and what becomes a burden for others?

If you’ve ever wondered what to do with your books — or why we read the way we do — this video is for you.
