Booking Through Thursday: Multiples

Booking Through Thursday

Do you have multiple copies of any of your books?If so, why? Absent-mindedness? You love them that much? First Editions for the shelf, but paperbacks to read? If not, why not? Not enough space? Not enough money? Too sensible to do something so foolish?


There's a few, and I think mostly it's on accident. I think I have a copy of Dracula on it's own, and a copy of it coupled with Frankenstein or something. I bought a copy of Lord of the Rings, all 3 books in one, so that we didn't have to read my husband's battered old copies any more and worry about them falling apart. We have two copies of Where the Red Fern Grows, both sentimental to us having received and read them when we were kids, so we'll keep them!

But mostly if I find a double copy of something, off to Paperback Swap it goes!

  1. I currently have one accidently duplicate. I need to find a home for it, I think. Haha My husband and I have at least one duplicate that came about when we joined our collections together. And the other duplicates were all on purpose. Not too many of those though. :-) I'm more a one book kind of woman overall. Just that once I broke that unspoken rule though.
