Yeah, the Absolute sized books are too big for my bookshelves, so I end up putting them in my basement storage with other coffee-table like books. In fact, I bought only two Absolute books over the years and have since sold one and will sell the other shortly simply because they're too inconvenient to not only store, but also to read. My general rule of thumb is that if I can't read the book in bed with my kids, then I don't buy it. Given that I already have the singles and that the content is a bit too mature for my kids at this point, it was a lower priority purchase to begin with, but hopefully we'll get a corrected edition of NM vol 2 at some point.
