I'm always guilty of bringing too many books when packing for a trip; being a firm believer in the one-book-per-day rule. (Not that I'm necessarily going to read a book a day - though on a certain kind of vacation I might - but that I worry about running out, about maybe not liking what I brought, about wanting something for a different mood.)
