The Book Blogger Hop hosted by crazy-for-books.com. Click on the icon above to be taken to a list of book blogs...it's enjoyable to peruse and you may just find a couple of fun blogs to follow! This week's question:
How/Where do you get your books? Do you buy them or go to the library? Is there a certain website you use like paperbackswap?
Welp, I try to use the library as often as possible for the majority of my reading. I live in a tiny little bungalow which is already overflowing with books so I attempt to keep my buying to a minimum.
When I do purchase books I either use half.com (for cheapness factor...I don't mind gently used books) or I buy books from the amazing independent store in town called Boxcar Books which is a non-profit volunteer-run little gem!
What about you guys? Where do you buy your books?
I am jealous. I would love to have a cute independent book store like that close to my home!
ReplyDeleteI stopped by from the blog hop. They closed our independent book store. So sad.

Boxcar Books sounds awesome!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, here's our HOP! While your there check out our giveaway's The Vampire Diaries Complete Series, Vampire Shift (signed), Signed Forever Prize Packs!!
@Anne - yeah, I realize that I'm pretty lucky :)
ReplyDelete@Cozy - sad indeed...I wonder fate will befall the lil' bookstores
@Darkfallen - it is awesome!
Yay for indie bookstores!! :) While I don't buy too many books, I always try to visit my bookstore first - they're great!
ReplyDeletespace can really be an issue can't it. One reason I like the nook but I still like the feel of a book in my hands. I use the library a lot too.
ReplyDeleteHopping over and I'm a new follower! I try to check out books, and the bookstore where I work lets me do that as well, so that is nice. I like my Nook e-reader, but some books I still need to own. Hope you'll stop by my blog as well: http://misclisa.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteTwo years ago I started tracking where my books were coming from. Please come see where I get my books.
ReplyDeleteHi! Hopping by courtesy of this week's book blogger hop. I love the name of your blog. It makes me smile!
ReplyDeleteI've never bought anything from half.com. I'll have to check it out!
