Senusret I does not borrow books. He owns them.

Even in her most solvent of days, Drolefille has too many books and not enough bookshelves. Or window sills. Or boxes.

That's because they are books that you want to own. You probably wouldn't feel that way if you needed stacks upon stacks upon stacks upon stacks of books (that don't interest you otherwise) for some research, for example.

That coupon has gotten me into so much trouble....they count on me to spend more than i had planned because I'm saving more. AND I DO IT EVERY TIME.

Anyway, I got that book you suggested. Haven't started it yet, but it looks really good
