" There is nothing in our homes quite like a book. Wouldn’t it be great if we could keep unlimited amounts of them? Books in every room, piled high, yet organized in such a way that we knew where that exact title was, exactly when we wanted it.

Sadly the dream of infinite books is just a dream. Our space is limited and we can only keep so many books. That constraint forces choices. What if these choices and the decision-making that comes with them could be seen as a path to personal growth and understanding? We believe it is exactly that.

Just as the books we keep tell the story of who we are, the books we do not keep must be let go with an open heart and open mind. Letting a book go is an equally essential part of our ever unfolding story. We have to ask ourselves honestly, why do I have this book? "
