(However, I have two friends that buy everything, and don't mind sharing because I'm very good at returning-I won't even take their books to the beach. That is probably the one time of year that I BUY-shudder-books!)

I think I'm like Honey - I'm typically pretty hard on my books. When I was younger, I'd have a book with me
everywhere - even the bathtub! (And boy, I don't think the library would like getting a soaked book back!
) The library nearest me doesn't have much of a selection, so I haven't really tried looking for books there - plus there's so many that I like and would want to reread later on!
I've reduced the number of books I have now - I usually buy a book if it looks interesting (especially since I can read them pretty fast, I always have a number of books in reserve to get to next!), and the Used Paperback bookstores near me are a godsend - I was just in there today, bought 6 books (2 of them were Christian romance novels), and only spent $30!
Whenever I get married, my husband's going to have to live with at least one room being a library for all my books!
