There's the link, in case anyone else is interested in joining me with reading on a relatively large scale. :woohoo:

Serpenvicis, I've found that my opinions of books change as I get older as well. I tried to read the Lord of the Rings when I was 17 or so, and just couldn't get into it at all. I read it a few years ago though, and really liked it this time.

Interesting link, Envy... I've read probably a third of them, and quite a few of the others are on my list. I try to buy books only at second-hand stores, to save money... limits your choices somewhat though.

I borrow all of my books from the library - We have two libraries here and you can request books using your online account if there's a book you want and another local library has it. I'll usually go off to the bookstore and memorise titles, then run home and search the library catalogue online. :S If the libraries don't stock what I'm after, I'll consider buying. Usually only borrow fiction from the library, because it can be a pain if you have a textbook and someone else reserves it.

I don't know why, but I never go to the library now, although my grandmother used to take me, when I went into town to visit her. And the book-mobile used to come around to our place (still does, actually, and my mom still goes). It came once a month, and there was a limit to how many books kids were allowed to take. But I was always very careful with mine, and they never ever came back damaged, so the librarian used to let me take as many as I wanted. It was a converted city bus, and the air-brakes used to scare me a bit when I was really small, but it was a very exciting day when the book-mobile came.
