I'd rather lend a book to a friend and be able to talk about it with them than let it sit on a shelf gathering dust. <br /><br />Also, I like my bookshelf to hold all of my favorites, not just anything I've read. If it's a book I may re-read (which is a rare thing) then it goes on the bookshelf. <br /><br />I can't afford a library of brand new books when I read over 100 a year. I take books out of the library mostly, pick some up at yard sales and thrift stores and only occasionally buy (at Harleysville Books) as a treat. I don't care if my books are new.AndreaChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17666506118478359812noreply@blogger.com
