This is one of those lazy, I'm-just-wondering posts.
I have 36 titles on my Kindle, about a third of them I have read.
I'm going in for surgery soon, and when friends ask, "is there anything I can do?" I'll coyly hint that my wishlist has a few ebook titles on it. A surgery registry, you might say
I have maybe 50-75 on my Kindle but those are the romance novels that I refuse to be caught reading in public in another format. I prefer my usual books in book format.
I have a Fire tablet, so not sure if you're including that, but I don't like clutter in either my physical or virtual space, so I only put one at a time on mine. Hey, I only read one book at a time, anyway.
At any given time I probably have a hundred or so on my Kindle (my Amazon ebook library is up around 2,700 and my non-Amazon ebook library is around 1,000), consisting of books to be read and then a bunch of old favorites to sort of fall back on.
I have always believed in the "don't clutter the disk/flash storage too much or you will slow down the device" theory. The spouse and the offspring tend to leave everything on their devices and have both hit the hard memory limit before.
Oh My Gosh, I had more than 36 titles on my Kindle the first day back in 10/11 that I started downloading Freebies!
I have over 800 now! Yep, I am an eBook hoarder!
Ha,ha like you I am addicted to the freebies.
I did actually reach my Kindle limit and have been going through and deleting some e-books that really don't sound "that" good. I am up to letter "L" and have gotten rid of about 400 books but I still have 517 books on my Kindle.
I've got about 250 unread and just over 200 archived to the cloud. I've probably got around 100 actual books in my unread category and who knows how many that have been read, maybe 1,000. I'm slowly working on culling out what I no longer want to keep on hand but even the library isn't interested in most of them. Guess I'll have to haul them to the nearest Goodwill which is 35 miles away.

Wow, good job!
I haven't had any problems yet[knock on wood],and I did go through mine by genre a few days ago.
I really need to take at least an entire day going through them all!
I have hundreds on my nook and hundreds more on my ipad. I've become an ever better bookworm with the advent of these readers. I love how they are self-illuminated and you don't have to get up out of bed or reach to turn out the light!
