How many RPG books are too many? (ttrpg.network)

I just had a moment where I downsized my RPG book collection. Do you ever weed out your collection? I find myself becoming a bit of a headless chicken, sometimes more interested in what the promise is that a book might hold, rather than diving in deep into the ones I already have. This superficial engagement with many books I find very unsatisfying. The books I cherish most are the ones that I have really sunk my teeth into, and I have a feeling that there is still a lot to discover in some of those that I haven't revisited in a while. Master the tools you have, rather than acquiring ever more barely used tools. Just wanted to air my thoughts, quite happy right now with my smaller collection of things I really cherish.

I try to limit myself to only especially nice books these days. If I just want to read the rules a pdf does the job done. So if its taking up shelf space is going to have to look nice and be useful. Aside from that, as long as I'm keeping in my entertainment budget there isn't really such thing as too many.
