I like buying books, tho, my mom thinks that its a waste of money cuz you can always check them out of hte library. My mom doesnt really let me buy books, even if i use my own money, (earned from a job). So i check them out from the library. But if such a book comes across me that i love, i beg my dad...and then sometimes he lets me buy, sometimes he says no...

i cherish books and to me a house without books is empty. i buy books. it drives my parents crazy that i have so many. i just cant help it. it's calling...a great book is worth a million bucks!!
i also prefer to buy them becasue i like to write in my books, underline my favorite line, or make comments about what i thought! then when i go back and look at even just the comments, the lovely adventure comes back to me! it's interesting, people how have borrowed books from me, they also make their own comments and it's fun to read what they thought!

no libraries for me!!

I use to only buy books. But now I use the Library because they have all the books, and my mom tells me I should borrow the book from the library for free instead of buying it, because I use to buy too much books. But the books that I read from the Library that I like I buy them because I know I would like to read them again, and its good to have a book collection.

lately I bought books but now borrowing from library.

My parents loved books and they owned a lot but when it kept in our house which was locked for years we lost a lot of it.Even now my mother worried about it.

Where I live we have great library facilities. Our library is TEN floors and the collection is extensive. So I love to borrow from the library (it's free) instead of buying and wasting my money. But if it's a classic or a book which I LOVE then I will buy it.
