Do you read library books or purchased books?


After moving last year and having to deal with about a dozen boxes of books (about 30 years worth), I resolved to read books from the library. I find the library very accommodating with their 'suggest a book ' feature on the web site. They usually will get a book they don't already have. Sometimes, though, two weeks on a new release is not enough time to finish a big book! I've bought only six or so books since I moved. I have to admit I do like to buy books, I just don't like to store (or move) them.

I just went through what you mentioned. I also had 12-14 boxes of books that I've collected for the past 25 - 30 years. But the thing that made it all ok was that if there is any of those books I want to reread, I can without leaving home. I have reread many of the books I have kept. If the book is lousy I give it to a Library.

Where Can I Get Boxes Of Free Books?


I have tried the newspapers and I have ads running all the time!
But can anyone else help me with some ideas on other places to get boxes of free books?

Your local libraries have quarterly sales to get rid of old books at bargain prices (like $2 a bag).

Craig's List or freecycle.org are great resources, too.

    Great Dialog! Keep writing! – one hint: read it aloud to yourself and look for what I call "stumbling points" any place the dialog of prose makes you pause (draw you out of the story) should be considered for revising. (Unless intentional :-) )
