Books are great for hoarding because you can stack them and fir many even in small places.<br /><br />I'm not yet a book hoarder though so check back with me same time next year and we'll see if I think differently!<br /><br />So Caite, how many books do you really have?!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-3911391634041193692009-10-05T15:17:35.696-04:002009-10-05T15:17:35.696-04:00I have a lot of books all over the place too.

I guess that's what interlibrary loan is for. If I really can't wait I either look through the thrift stores here and if not, then I'll buy it.

I book-shop constantly and it's a real effort to hold myself back. The worst is when I go into a really big, warehouse-like indie and find things that I didn't think of before and buy them. Bookmooch is helping me pace myself a little bit, but it also feeds the addiction. Oy.

Tomorrow is the library $3 a bag sale and I am going (again!) but I have promised myself to limit the buying frenzy. We'll see what happens. My best friend of 55 years is coming to visit soon and I told her to take some books with her when she leaves. Little does she know it is a whole entire bookcase. Good way to get rid of a lot at one fell swoop. We are taking a bunch up to Plymouth next month. Should I toss some out on I95 when we zip through NJ?Kayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10282803815704229945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-71806874260066646112009-10-05T09:32:59.909-04:002009-10-05T09:32:59.909-04:00Join the Book Hoarding Club LOL

If I ever go somewhere that sells books (cheap or not), I always end up getting more than what I had planned--I have so many unread books at home, and yet I want more! A majority of the time, though, I wait until the book is about 75 cents online, and then I buy it. :)<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16332815163846166660noreply@blogger.com
