How many books should you have? Organizational expert and Netflix sensation Marie Kondo says she keeps her collection to about 30 volumes at one time. She says it’s a number that works for her, and that the books you decide to keep should bring you joy.
Our guests discuss why many people value books as objects – for intellectual or sentimental reasons – and why it can be so difficult to let them go. In studio:
- Kyle Semmel, writer and translator
- Jeri Dube, retired communications consultant
- Anderson "Poetically Undefined" Allen, spoken wordsmith and teaching artist
- Brenda Tremblay, host and producer for WXXI’s Classical 91.5
- Mari Tsuchiya, Rochester resident who was born and raised in Japan
