Good on you for being willing to consider the sacred cow of minimalism. ;) I own about 1/4 of the books I owned in college, and next time I move across country I'll probably let go of some more.

I do agree that books say a lot about you and at one time I was quite attached to what my giant stacks and shelves of books said about me, but if somebody's going to judge me for only having three full bookshelves instead of the ten I used to have, they're probably not my type after all. XD
