I do this with fiction, although mostly I read e-books these days so there’s nothing to pass on and no need to find shelf space. I keep art books, poetry, stuff I’ll reread. And anything I want for referencing later, which in practice has meant a ton of nonfiction and textbooks. But novels and such I rarely read twice and would rather get them into the hands of a new reader, library or used book store so they can continue to be enjoyed.
