If you don't count dictionaries, reference books, or textbooks, then no. I'm also not counting all the works in the public domain, which everybody owns.
I am actually not sure. I read a lot. I have a lot of books.
Probably, but I'm not positive. I inherited a lot of books. My bedroom was filled with books before I even knew how to read. I'm glad about that.
