I've branched out to genres I probably never would have tried before, and find myself buying so many books that I'm on a self-imposed book buying ban now!<br /><br />I miss the library too. Feel guilty because I used to go there twice a week, but now I can't remember the last time I stopped by.Alexia561https://www.blogger.com/profile/10797515620050469395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-1082702686452292962011-09-15T19:07:28.167-06:002011-09-15T19:07:28.167-06:00I struggle to find the time nowadays to just brows...I struggle to find the time nowadays to just browse at the library and look for books. I love looking thru the shelves and try to make the time at least once a month.

I...I'm totally with you on nearly all of those! I actually find myself visiting the library more often now that I'm reading a lot of recommended books I don't already own. My book binges have to come from library book sales and used book stores, as my budget allows, so if I want a specific book, I usually have to borrow from the library. And bloggers have actually gotten me to take another look at the classics, which I avoided in my post-school days!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429588794754369453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-3186467653949139002011-09-15T13:03:10.917-06:002011-09-15T13:03:10.917-06:00I hadn't really thought about it, but you'...I hadn't really thought about it, but you're right about the library. I can't remember the last time I just browsed the shelves looking for random books. These days,I mostly go there to grab the books I've put on hold (usually ones recommended by other bloggers). Although that could have more to do with the fact that I usually have my 2-year-old along than with the fact that I'm a book blogger!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344704891037668456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-36358537033940015302011-09-15T11:13:36.155-06:002011-09-15T11:13:36.155-06:00I agree with all your positives and negatives, and...I agree with all your positives and negatives, and I love how you included buying binges as a positive and a negative because it definitely is!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-91621323897315065722011-09-15T11:01:12.290-06:002011-09-15T11:01:12.290-06:00There are definitely ups and downs to blogging, bu...There are definitely ups and downs to blogging, but when I quit for a while, I missed it so much.

I'm hoping that I could still read them, but I just finished a huge book and it was really hard for me.
