Comments on: How often do you buy books from a book store or online? http://reading-1.com/2009/10/28/book-stores/298/ Blog about the joys of reading Mon, 12 Jul 2010 20:21:07 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Devil's Advocette http://reading-1.com/2009/10/28/book-stores/298/comment-page-1/#comment-2442 Devil's Advocette Mon, 02 Nov 2009 20:24:52 +0000 http://reading-1.com/2009/10/28/book-stores/298/#comment-2442 <a href="**"></a> Online I use amazon, only every few months or so when I'm looking for something specific. Otherwise, I check out Borders and B&N's bargain racks about once a month. But the majority of my books come from thrift stores. It's amazing what you can find in there, like I recently found the new Grisham, and it's been out less than a year. I love walking in with $20 and walking out with two shopping bags full of new titles. Granted, you end up with some stinkers that way, but I've also found some rare gems, like an unabridged copy of Anna Karenina for $2.

Whether I by something or not depends on how much money I have with me. Usually I do by a book, whether I need it or not. I am a book addict. =P

I shouldn't because I've not got a lot of money but I love reading. I usually buy my books from Angus and Robertson or from K-mart. And if I have a discount voucher I go to Borders. It's my favourite bookstore. So much variety, but a bit more expensive.
