Why Buy?

[alanajoli]

When I worked at the bookstore, I had to put a limit on my buying habits. I bought books to the extent that I probably wasn't actually earning much from my bookstore job. New Year's rolled around and I made a resolution that I've been pretty good about keeping: Don't buy a book unless you're going to take it home and read it that night. Or if it's a graphic novel. 'Cause those are quick reads, and also indespensible.

I always find it interesting to learn why people buy books, and mindyklasky has put up a great poll in her journal, asking for people's opinions. Some of the comments are really interesting as well.

Thanks to sartorias for linking to this.
