Weight: 14 lbs
Method of Disposal: Donating
It is always hard to let the classics go, but I am fairly certain that I have multiple copies of all of them, and I need to cut it out. I also feel comfortable buying them for next to nothing or getting them for free on kindle seeing as I have bought them so many times and the authors are no longer around. So, I am going to suck it up and let go of most of my classics as I find them and replace them with Kindle editions in the interest or reclaiming space in my home. Let's hope the government or Amazon does not decide we shouldn't read anymore and erases all the books instead of burning them. Trump likely would if he found a way to.
Also, I am counting The Unbearable Lightness of Being as a classic and an actual true life Prepaid Phone Card for calls within the U.S. fell out of the Emily Dickinson collection. Thank goodness for cellphones and Skype for that reason at least!
