@curiousdannii My wife says I have everything I could possibly need =). I've got 6-foot bookcases spread throughout the house, though most of that is literature/history/economics/gardening. I have a lot of reformed theology books, and some from my dispensational days. For other traditions I usually have to rely on online sources. But I also have gaps in ethics, missiology, exegesis (I have very few post-1923 commentaries), and church history.
@curiousdannii No biblical languages yet. Working on Latin now; we'll see how I'm doing with that in a few years and then perhaps I'll start NT Greek. Main periods of interest are 0-500 and 1500-1800 (hence the Latin study; it's shocking to me that there are works of Augustine that aren't yet in English).
Budget is somewhat limited; I try to keep it to around $100-200 a year, so used books and Christmas gifts are my friends. Space is definitely a limiting factor too, so I've thought about buying a commentary set for my church's library so it could be stored there and perhaps be useful to others.
