I love traditional books - you can frequently find me browsing at the library or book store - I too have lots of books - many from years back - I refuse to let those dog eared books go because they still give me so much joy and am sentimentally attached to them -

It is great that you made the decision to donate your books even though it was not an easy one, I'm sure - it must be so heartwarming to see others interested in checking them out and reading them 💙

Excellent essay, Dr Preeti!
