Do you go to the library or bookstore more often?

[lady_charlie]

Sadly I don't have to go anywhere anymore - my kindle brings me books from stores and the library no more overdue books, either - the library takes them back when they are due - now that makes me sad sometimes when I forget they are due and then they disappear.

I went to the library one night a couple of weeks ago because I had to wait on someone to get done doing something, but I didn't check out a book.

I will read real books in the summer when I have lots of sunlight.

I love going to bookstores but I have a hard time picking out a book so I often spend an hour and don't buy anything.

I definitely go to the library more. It's how I'm reading this months book selection. More than that, I love using my library's ebook account (through a program called Overdrive.) I don't have to leave my house!

Ever since I got an e-reader (and learned I can use the kindle app on my phone, too!) I've become much more fond of the library. I know that sounds nonsensical, but our local libraries actually have online ebook rental as well, which means that we can freely rent all sorts of books for 14 days straight to our phones and Kindle for free, and they even auto-return according to the website! There are some books that I'm happy to purchase and own, but for the purposes of reading, I always check the online rental first, then the libraries themselves, before going out and purchasing.

I am quite fond of the library especially when I'm looking for a new book or series because I dont want to spend money on a book that might not be what I'm looking for.

I go to the bookstore or have also started buying physical books online. Living in Australia I find the range of books in our stores is quite limited compared to US.

I go to online book sites and I go to bookstores for boook shopping.

Once every few months, I go to the bookstore to scope out books I may have missed at the library or to buy books that I love to re-read. However, I go to the library at least once a week.

I go to the library. I can't remember the last time I went to a bookstore. I love the ambiance in a library. Mostly though I use me Kindle to quench my reading appetite.

I guess I'm a bit less conventional. I usually get my books off of Amazon or from 2nd & Charles. If you have not heard of 2nd & Charles, I would strongly recommend looking to see if there is one in your area. It's a second hand bookstore, but the books are in incredible condition. I got a close to new book for less than $2.00 once.

I've been looking into getting a library card where I am now. My boyfriend's sister swears by renting audio books for long car rides, and I think it might be a good idea for me. I prefer to read my books, but an audio book might be a nice alternative to music.

Used to be the bookstore more often. These days, it's the library.

I have more necessary expenses now so unfortunately I have to stick with borrowing books most of the time now.

The library, definitely, but then, I tend to use it for getting out of my apartment to do some writing (and I live right next to a beautiful library that smells like old books, which helps a lot). There's also the fact that I don't have enough money for a bookstore, so I have to borrow my books more often.

Always the Bookstore!
I cannot stand the condition of some library books, plus, I work too much for that!

The library is a fantastic place for artistic work! I went there a few times while doing some game development, it's a great escape from home! It almost feels like a really cool, quiet office.

I go to the bookstore to purchase books for my
classroom. I feel like I'm constantly buying more anywhere I can
find them at a good price because they get torn up in such
a short amount of time. My students may be part goat! Lol
