I've found a cure for this by doing an electronic jigsaw puzzle in my desk-top PC at the same time. One half of the brain is taken up with the jigsaw, the other half is coping with the person reading the story. Works great.
You must have an iron will to stick to that rule. I admire you for it.
I do pass many of my books on and periodically send them back to the charity shop...where many of them came from anyway.
If I have particularly enjoyed a book and think I will re-read it I buy it on Kindle...that way it takes up no room space.
I cannot go to sleep without having at least half an hour of a read.......I have never tried audio books, but I think I would prefer to read.
