I don't even donate them unless I really want to(which rarely happens).
I LOVE my books too much to donate them..they're very close to me..and I can never let them go!
I sound like a complete psycho right now!!😆

but thanks for letting me know about this! :)

I never ever throw away a book. Why waste such a big treasure?

I always either donate it to my younger cousins, or just keep it on my shelves.

I will NEVER throw away my books!
lol just last year, i packed up (my parents made me >( ... )pack up all these books i had that i dont read or not gonna read again. I had 3 garbage bags full! We donated them to Goodwill. I didnt want to though =[
After i donated them, i found out that we could have donated them at our local library! I want people to be able to read my books for free, not buy them at goodwill
