Book Gluttony! Are your eyes bigger than your book belly? Do you have a habit of buying up books far quicker than you could possibly read them? Have you had to curb your book buying habits until you can catch up with yourself? Or are you a controlled buyer, only purchasing books when you have run out of things to read?
XD Ahaha. I wouldn't say I buy too many books, because frankly, I don't have the money, being a teenager and all with no job and no source of income but allowance. I really wish I did though- and if I did have the money, I'd have waaay to many books. They would fill up all of my room, no doubt, with wall to wall shelves, if I could have it my way. But, I do, however, live off my public library, and tend to request way too many. I can never get through them all. >.<
I really only buy books if I can't get them from the library, really really want them, or I can convince my parents to buy them for me on a whim. XD
It sucks being a teenager with no job! Libraries are amazing, except that mine doesn't have recent releases. It has some newish ones, but not the ones in the Waterstone's that is opposite it. Although there is a charity shop next door which sells books quite cheap :)
ReplyDeleteAnd you feel like you're helping a good cause.
I also request too many from my library, I end up having to renew them! But I am getting a summer job so I think I'm going to spend most of my first week's money on books. I have a list of books I want after my GCSEs. Hopefully I can try and control myself (unlikely).
Don't you just love books?
