Revisiting an old forum thread with a twist...
So I'm having to dump all my books before I move out of the country. Too costly to have them shipped and I'm realizing how tablet technology makes it so much easier to move your books/movies/music around, now more than ever. Now I find myself cataloging all the books I need to download to replace their paper counterparts.
Do you still buy books?
Borrow from a library?
Download to a tablet?
What are the titles (top 5) in your collection?
I buy books sometimes. I mostly buy used books. Most books I read come from the library though.
I mostly buy non-fiction because I might not revisit novels so they aren't that important to keep. But I would also want a few to show what I like, to represent me.
But unfortunately my books are scattered and there is no order and the most striking with my home is lack of order.
In this room I mostly keep boring books, it just happened that way, books friends wanted to look at and they were just put up in the shelf here.
I have quite a few shelves of academic textbooks I never sold. They make me look smart but I've never really read any of them..ok maybe 1/4th I've read some of
Anyways, surely you were just referring to novels. I don't have any on my shelves but on my tablet I have 50 shades of grey and maybe dracula. I'd have to check
I don't read books really and I especially do not like fiction.
