I get excited going through people's books too!TammyO wrote:I agree. I would never give a used book as a gift. However, I buy and trade used paperback books all the time from our local book exchange. I have found some really interesting used books from a variety of venues; books that the library or bookstores no longer carry. I also enjoy buying new books as well though. One never knows where that "gem" of a book will be found used or new. Call me crazy, but I get so excited looking through other people's boxes of used books as well.
