Books that Have Left the Building.

Occasionally, I do manage to get rid of books that I've outgrown, hated passionately, was meh about, or someone else might appreciate more. Here are some. You will notice that I got rid of a bunch of theory books, some mystery, humor and fiction. I read a good chunk of them. Less so with the theory books. And I couldn't make myself read Burroughs. I got a copy of New Yorker cat cartoons for it.

The amount of books that I've brought into the place: probably double the amount of books that I've found homes for, are being borrowed or gotten more books for.
