I keep them! I keep all my read books in an area all by themselves apart from my books that I have yet read. I frequently go back and handle all the books that I've read just like old friends. I think about the book and the plot. I enjoy the book all over again. I just couldn't throw the book out. I use the book to jog my memory. If I didn't have the physical book to jog my memory, then I'm afraid I might not ever think of the book again. I'm 53 and I need all the memory jogging I can get!
