Lots of libraries that I never visit.
I always buy books, because once I read a book, I have to keep it.
I want to read the next book in the Throne of Glass series, and I can preorder the ebook for when it comes out on September the 1st.

So now I have to wait....
Hmm............ see your dilemma! That would mean massive fines if you kept them. maybe you could turn over a new leaf though and take them back!

I'm with you, Abdulla about having to keep books.
So I can't do e-books either.
I love ebooks. I used to love being able to hold a book, but I realized it didn't make much of a difference as long as it was there, on my tablet....
There's nothing better than reading an ebook on my tablet in my cold room at night.... Also, I can listen to music while reading.

You have a Cold Dark Room as well?

nor me I love real books but I usually buy from charity shops now and take them back as I don't have the room form any more books now!
i had a few hundred of my books shipped over from England when I came here, but had to sell and give away thousands. Tragic.
i'm slowly restocking my library, year by year, thankfully I do have the space.

Yes I like too do that - I put my records on the gramophone. make myself comfy and pick up my tome. What a great way to while away the time!

I never really visit the library.
I love spending money, so I go to the nearest bookshop and spend like I'll never buy another book again....

I was just telling Abdullah with his multitasking e reader that in the good old days we could read and listen to music too - just differently!!!
