The majority of the books that come into my house end up getting traded for other books. I’ll only buy a new book if it’s cheap and I’m fairly sure I’ll like it.<br /><br />Aj @ <a href="http://ajsterkel.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Read All The Things!</a><br />Aj @ Read All The Things!https://www.blogger.com/profile/02860483414620371093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158143373242218557.post-78952844943191558702017-07-13T18:36:28.146-04:002017-07-13T18:36:28.146-04:00I *try* to only buy books I know I'm going to ...I *try* to only buy books I know I'm going to read. The thing is, sometimes they end up sitting on my shelf for too long and then my book taste changes so I end up getting rid of them. *sigh*<br /><br />I also don't usually buy a copy if I already have the ARC, unless I absolutely loved it.<br />Krystianna @ <a href="http://downrightdystopian.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Downright Dystopian</a><br />Krystiannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06793987066964047092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158143373242218557.post-64645398779284825832017-07-13T18:23:42.534-04:002017-07-13T18:23:42.534-04:00I don't buy books if I have an ARC either.

I have been on a book buying ban for a while, where I can only buy books from series I have already started reading or a deeply discounted books from my TBR. I have a ton of unread books and I have no problem using the library. I read a lot, and would be totally book poor if I bought every book I read (I have read 186 books already this year)Samantha@WLABBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11589486165371852904noreply@blogger.com
