Since we were just discussing books the other day I thought I'd put this out there. I like to read and end up spending a lot on books that I read and don't know what to do with once I'm done. I was just reading about a bookswap website (paperbackswap.com). You just put your books up and people request them and you request what you want from other people. I just requested my first book so I'm hoping it works out well. It would save me a ton of money and get some of the books out of my room that I'm done with. I'm still surprised someone had the book I was looking for. I've been reading books by Whitney Lyle, wedding fiction of course, and I'm anxious to read the next one!

^this. I have to buy my books, and I can never part with them. I love to just look at the books I have read. I would love to one day have a gigantic library filled with books. I am not a library or get rid of books type of person lol. They are like my trophys to show everybody how smart I am hehe.

Yes, this. I like having bookselves of books and I have to keep the books I read. I may let people borrow them, etc but they always return to my shelf. I buy my books cheaper, though, with coupons or at half.com or something.
My Planning Bio
Ditto. Ditto. Ditto.
I buy books. If I checked out at the library, they would never get returned. I have STACKS of "to-be-read" books that I see and just pick up. I work my way through them, but every couple of books, I feel the need to return to a favorite
So my TBR pile continues to grow. I'm ok with that.
If a book is "Eh...", I'll sell it to half-price books, but most I keep.

Same. How often do you re-read books? Effing never. My mom works at a library and she always knows what the best books are!

I actually reread lots of books. Guess I'm weird like that
But I read lots of new stuff too. I just love to read. Good thing H works at B&N and we get a discount 
I've been using the library this summer though because I've been reading like crazy with having the summer off and I'm trying to save money
Oh, and forgot to say, but me too! I have books I started reading as a young teen / tween / child that I still reread every couple years. Roald Dahl's books, for instance.
