80-90 books
dlatany at gmail dot com
I'm a little embarrassed to admit it, but when I saw the title of your post, my heart beat a little bit faster for a second. I'm a book addict. Which would explain why I have somewhere between 600 and 700 (not including e-books, or Brent's books).
Easily 500, but it's probably several hundred more than that.
Honestly, never counted, but I'm thinking at least somewhere around 300...I don't remember for sure how many books are in boxes, so we'll just say 300 for now (though it's probably closer to 400!) :o)
My books, probably around 150. The kid's books, probably close to 400. We love to buy books for them at garage sales and the library overstock section.
I have over 200 on my eReader and I have only had that for 18 months or so. Maybe 800-900 total? I refuse to count.
Probably over 600, but that number includes the kids books. I'm going to have to do a rough estimate now...
Dare I confess that we have thousands of books in our home??? I have an MA in literature, so books have always been dear to me. I've passed that along to our kids. At my house, each bedroom has a couple of large bookcases full of books. They add up pretty fast. That said, we are always looking for new reading material.

I'll guess 100
At least 500, but probably more.

I don't even know, probably over 1000. Thanks for the giveaway!

I have hundreds of books! LOVE em!
I probably shouldn't even enter, but I can't resist! We have hundreds of books already. I could practically open a library! But how could I say no to more?
Hmm between physical books and E versions I'd say anywhere between 400-500 books.
At one time I'd say over 200, but getting married and living in 280 square feet requires sacrifices... I'd say 125 now....
200.
gardnerad@juno.com
By now I think I have around 500-600. The last time I counted was 3 years ago and I had 400. Looking at my shelves it just doesn't seem like I have that many...LOL
koonie2888 at yahoo dot com
Probably around 100 on just my bookshelf. That doesnt include my ereader or my kids books. ?
oklahomamommy0306@gmail.com
Thanks for the chance to win. I have well over a thousand right now, and that doesn't include all the books on my two Kindles. Yes, I hoard books too. :)

I probably have over 700 books in my home. I think. Wait. I didn't count my iPhone. I'm a little blown away. Have I read all those books?
...I feel greatly outclassed here. XD lol! I personally have around 80, but my family home-schools so we have 2-3 shelves of school material books too. :)
I have about 120 books. thanks for the giveaway prettyhaydengurl at a yahoo dot com
I have probably around 300 books. I would love more but space and money just don't allow. but I have nearly that amount on my kindle as well (all bought free, even the kindle fire was free lol)
Thanks for the giveaway! I have around 400 on my Nook, but I honestly have about 1,000 or so on shelves!!
We have books in every nook and cranny of the house. I really have no idea. At least 200-300. We all have Kindles and my husband listens to downloaded audiobooks.

I probably have at least a 100. Thanks so much for having this wonderful giveaway.
ayancey(at)dishmail(dot)net
A bunch of YOUR books? How fun! You always have such great taste or find books that I am not familiar with. I never regret reading books you recommend. I would bet that we have close to 600 books.
Thanks for the awesome giveaway! I love surprises :) I have over 600 books on my Kindle alone, and probably around 350 to 400 paper books in my house! That number doesn't include the boxes of books in my mom's basement that I haven't found room for in my house yet! LOL

cb1574@txstate.edu
Probably around 500 not including ebooks. I'm was never good at guessing. Now I wan't to be a book nerd and go count them all.
500 books, maybe more.
lilcrickit at gmail dot com
Thanks for the giveaway!
MMMMMMM between 150-200? Much more if you count ebooks :)
celjla212 at aol dot com
Gosh, I don't know.....I'd say more than 600. And I have gotten rid of a lot the last few years. But we still have a lot. Maybe I'll count them next time we move. But I would always love to win more!!
Just in my room there's at least 300, and with the whole house there's probably close to 700 or 800, maybe more :P
cigam9 at gmail dot com
I have hundreds of children's books and a couple hundred others, but we'll gladly take more! Great giveaway!
Less than 100. I got rid of a bunch when we moved. I need to add to my collection!

There are probably about 400-500 books in my home. My little girl and i both love to read.

Thanks!

Just counting YA/MG (as in not cookbooks and such) I probably have about 70 finished copies, 10 ARCs and 20 library books, give or take :P
aroomwithbooks(at)gmail(dot)com
I do a lot of ereading these days, so I'd guess I only have about 200-250 books in my house.
Thanks for the great giveaway!

hillacurr@gmail.com
Um, that would be hard to determine. I would have to say atleast 500...
kissyjensen at gmail dot com
Hmm I probably have around 100 print books.. I haven't counted recently. I have a ton on my NOOK as well. Thanks for the giveaway!!
CassMartino AT gmail DOT com
I have less than 100. Due to my local library flooding last year.
I gave up most of my books so others would have something to read.
rierie11booger (@) yahoo.com
I probably have 400-500....that's probably a low estimate in all likelihood though.
brookea_2006 at yahoodotcom
about 500
Dogkahn@aol.com
I've have at least 100
sonflower277 at gmail dot com
In the whole house? Including the storage room? It's probably somewhere around 1,000 - when you add in the Kindles, eesh! A lot more!!!
jessyisawinner(at)gmail(dot)com
Well at last count, I had a little less than 900. But that was quite some time ago and it wasn't including my husband's or children's so if you add those in, at least 1200. Thank you for the giveaway!!!
jaidahsmommy(at)comcast(dot)net
I don't have nearly the amount of books that I would like....I use the library for pretty much all of my reading. But I do splurge and buy all-time favorites such as Harry Potter and Hunger Games. Thanks for the chance to win. I'd love to own more books!
Thank you for the giveaway! I have about 50 books.
emilymeimei204 at yahoo dot com
Hmmm, I would say I have about 150-200 books in my house :)
Thanks so much for this great giveaway!
email: echika[at]insightbb[dot]com
Maybe 10. I tend to give mine away so others can read them. Books are meant to be read not sitting on a shelf
Books and ebooks.......about 150
130 maybe?
skidmore333atgmaildotcom
We probably have over 200 books! We love books in our family :)
I believe I have upwards of a thousand. I'm currently (and slowly) working on catalogueing them. That doesn't count Mom's books though....
In my room I have approximately six hundred-ish books? In my entire house, it's probably some 1500+? (: We are book people!
thaliasbooks@yahoo.com
I would say about 150, though I didn't really sit down and count...my father loves buying books that he never finds time to read. and we give away books ot the local library often~
lilianxchengATgmailDOTcom
I would say well over 100, plus my ebooks (not nearly as many, maybe 20)
hmmm...if I count my daughter's books the number is probably close to 500.
mamabunny13 at gmail dot com
I would say I have about 200 books in my home. I also have another 50 or so at work on a book shelf.
Would love to win!
I have about 65 in my house and about 150 in storage. Thanks so much for the giveaway.
pulliam_t at yahoo dot com
I have about 500 books all over the house.
denise13727(at)yahoo(dot)com
Um... last time I checked, I had more than 200, and that was around 6 years ago. Now? 300? 400+? I read a lot! :P
jenelleriane at yahoo dot com
I have over 1000 books & over 100 on my Kindle.
jmesparza821(at)gmail(dot)com
I am estimating around 400. Thanks for the great giveaway!
marypopmom@yahoo.com
I'm guessing maybe 500 or so??
kimberlybreid at hotmail dot com
Honestly, I don't know how many books I have at my house. I could probably fill a small library. My five year old daughter has several hundred, and I have an epic sci-fi collection. A thousand is a very low estimate.
pherlaithiel (at) gmail (dot) com
I probably have over 1000....
My books, probably a little over 200. I haven't counted my kids books though. Thanks!
I'd say over 1000 but never counted. Yet, I am constantly checking library sale shelves, scouring thrift stores, and entering giveaways. There's nothing like a shiny new-to-me book.
a lot I haven't counted but maybe 1000 or more
helldog3 at aol.com
I'm guessing around 100. --Thanks for the giveaway.
ldsmomof03 at yahoo dot com
Hard to say--maybe 500 or 600.
Thanks!
ruthaw_1974@yahoo.com
I'm always adding a few here or there. i would say a measly 100 books
hollybwrightatcomcastdotnet
I'd say at least 500 books here at home but there's always room for
more. I just buy more bookcases.
lkish77123 at gmail dot com
I'd say about 30 books, I tend to read them and pass them on or take them to the half price book store
s2s2 at comcast dot net
Wow, I have no clue. Around 300? Probably more.
Thanks!

Thanks for the great giveaway! I have thousands of books in my home—I'm a voracious reader!
THX for the giveaway I currently have over 1000 books in my home and my library continues to grow.
I probably have about 400 books. However, since we now have a kindle the amount is not accumulating as much as it had before.
