I don't have enough space for my books. I've had to rent a storage space for them. In the old days I would buy them then sell them back to a used bookseller as soon as I read them, I almost made a living doing that... or at least I could recoup some of what I spent. Now my apartment is overflowing: tables, chairs, the floor, with stacks of books and journals and papers. My wife hates it but we don't have much of a choice.

Many litterature, history and art books.
Some psychological too : I have two books from Freud for example.
Without forgetting religious and "esoterical" one : about Free-massons, Holy Grail, the Bible etc.

I can't imagine the kind of money I spent when, having lived in England for a little over a year, I shipped all of the books I bought back to the States... numerous trips to the Post office over a period of a couple months. But I still probably came out ahead, since good books were so cheap in the UK and easy to find (my goodness, the free books I was entitled to at Waterstones and WH Smith! Ridiculous!). We don't really have bookshops in Chicago, especially now since Barnes and Noble closed down.
