I've given many books away. Some of those, I hoped to get back, but oh well :/ I probably have a few books I meant to return :/

When I got the books from my grandmother's house, in the mid-70s, I just packed them off the shelves and brought them to my house. I had a chance to look through them in 1980, but it wasn't until 2014 or later that I realized I had my g-grandmother's christening book, maybe my gg-grandmother's, printed in Swedish. Then, during Covid, I realized that several of the Horatio Alger books I had once belonged to my grandfather.

I pressed flowers in a few books many years ago. Right now, have some old photos in a book, hoping to flatten them. lol
