If your house was burning down and you could save just one book from your collection … what would it be?
(And, for the purposes of this discussion, we’ll allow series to count as “one” long, multi-volume book.)
Assuming I’d already got out the photo albums with the rare and old family photos as well as notes on them from my grandmother, I’d probably grab my autographed copy of Lake Wobegon Days by Garrison Keillor. One of my favorite books and he personalized it for me along with his signature.
Sentimental value means a lot.

I agree, it’s important to grab the irreplaceable things. Thanks for stopping by!
Photo albums are important, good answer.

I would never be able to choose! Imagine losing all your books though. I’d be distraught. I’d probably try to rescue them all.
