Where Do You Get Your Books? Do You Go To The Library? Or Do You Buy Your Books For A Home Collection? I Buy Most Of My Books For My Collection But When They Get Read Sooo Many Times I'll Give Them To My Local Library And Sometimes When I'm There, I'll Check Out A Book Or Two.

I usually buy my books, used books if they are in pretty good condition, as they are usually really cheap compared to new books. If I have to buy a new book, it is usually by an author I know. At least I know whether it will be good or not.

I usually get my books from bookstores which mean I am actually buying the books! I never really spend anytime in the library and when I go there, there isn't anything which interests me. I found some of the books are dirty and that doesn't impress me too much! I love reading books and love owning them!

I used to go to the library but sometimes I didn't always have the time to return the books. I was always late with them and it cost me a fortune. I'm a member at a book store chain and buy most of my books with some borrowed from friends here and there. Since I enjoy re reading books, having the home library makes it all the easier when I decide to read something again.

I usually go to the library to get books that I'm not going to use for very long, like guides to do various things. At the bookstore I usually get paperbacks and things like that, which are more impulse buys. Please don't take this the wrong way, but you might be better off not Typing Like This. You really only need to capitalize the first letter of each sentence. It makes for easier reading, and your pinky finger doesn't get tired :).

I usually read book at uni. library and at home. Depends on time and location I live. Sometimes I will borrow some books what I need. Mainly academic textbook or the books for photography.

I buy most of my books. It's very rare I go to the library anymore, because I usually like books enough to want to keep them. When I do go to the library, it's mainly to get books that are out of print, and that I can not find in bookstores. Last week my husband and I went on a shopping spree at Borders books in Phoenix, and I got all kinds of things, including a couple of books for him for his birthday.
