I HAD a library card. but only to use the computers lol. I'd rather not borrow books from the public library, because of all the hassle of the late fees, and the waiting list.
I like going to thrift stores...and buying paperbacks for like 50 cents. Usually they are in pretty good condition. I only buy books that I'm collecting, or to support my favorite authors. |

I buy most classical literature and borrow from the library if I wish to sample certain authors. The library has a daily used book sale, so, oftentimes, I pick up a few discarded classics, most of which are priced at one or two dollars each. It's a flaming good deal, and the books aren't in poor condition, either.
