Actually, it's a great suggestion. However that small box I'm left with is that post-donation elite group, the ones that have sentimental value. I haven't bought physical books in years, I borrow at the library. I don't read fiction nearly as much as I used to, sadly... Teenage me, who read anywhere from 1-3 novels a week, would be ashamed.
Edit: Now that I think of it, I do have some books that are loaners and others I've loaned and never saw again. My copy of The Hobbit was my godfather's when he was in university.
