Even though nowadays most of the time i would prefer just type keyword and press enter to look for information but i still go to book shops and buy books.At least once a month.

I love going to bookshops and browsing through the books. I also like to search for more information on any books that I'm interested in so that I can know more about the book before buying it. Thanks for responding.

as you might see from my profile and discussions I am a very book addicted and I am always happy to answering to discussions about books...so here I am ...I love books, I like being surrounded by books..one of my dreams is to have one of those big houses with an enormous wooden library where to seat near a fireplace and read all my favourite authors...well, even though I don't have such a big house I do have a lot of books and as soon as I finish one I am there buying another..Even though I am not buying anything I like going to the biggest bookkshops and have a look at the latest releases and learn something new while lingering between shelves..there is always so much to see and to learn....

Hi, thanks for the response. Haha! I have the same dream like you too! I would like to own my own house where there will be books everywhere! From top to bottom. Like a library. I love buying new books too and then quickly reading them at home. yeah, going to the bookshops is very fun, even if I'm not buying anything. I enjoy browsing along the shelves and making mental notes so that I know what to buy the next time I'm there. Thanks again for responding. Have fun reading!

I also a book addicted.In a month I must buy at least one or two books.I will buy a book whether local or from oversea although at that time I have enough money just for my fuel to go home.My ambition is want to build my personal library at my home.I'll feel very sad if some of my friend didn't take care for my book which they had borrowed.

Keep it up. At least you have new books each month to read! =) And good luck with your personal library. I hope it will be very big one day. And yes, I will also feel very sad if my friends were to abuse the books that I've lent them.

I love to read so I buy books at least once or twice a month. I usually buy then at kiosks or the grocery store (they sell books and magazines as well as groceries)

That's good that you buy books regularly. Keep it up! I wish the grocery stores here sold books too.

Yeah, books are so expensive nowadays especially in Malaysia. And unfortunately, the library nearby isn't that good, so I can't depend on it. Thanks for responding.
