    I've done this numerous times. I also rarely lend out books. But i have many more than 2 bookcases. Two different books, I've ended up buying twice. One of the two copies I've been taking with me traveling, so it didn't really hurt to have a second copy. When I lose something, I'm likely to find it when I least expect it, in a fairly unlikely place. Lately, it doesn't help that everything in our house got packed up to install new flooring. I'm still finding stuff I though was lost forever.

    You make me feel so much better about losing things that are right in front of me. Sometimes I just walk away and come back a little later and voila there it is right where I looked before.

    The only time (twice) wa because a new cover had been put on an older book. My daughter gained 2 new books for her collection, so it worked out

    I guess I mislead by mentioning two book cases.. They are each a wall 16 feet by 8 foot high. They are built in. I went though both. I'm inclined to think I brought them with me to my brother's, and forgot to take them home.

    was wondering if you ever found your books.
