Week Nine (Wednesday, January 19, 2005)
"When I get a little money I buy books; and if any is left, I buy food and clothes." -Desiderius Erasmus
1. How many books do you own (and if you're not a nerd like me and don't know the exact number, guesstimate)? 1700
2. Do you keep books to add to your personal library, or do you trade them/give them away? Keep.
3. If you keep books, what makes you keep them? What kind of books do you keep? I previously kept nearly everything, for the joy of being surrounded by books, the smell and "culture" of which I love. Now, for practical reasons, I keep fiction and literature and some history.
4. Do you have a guilty pleasure book--something you would never want to admit to reading?
Yes. (Surely I needn't reveal more than that?!)
5. Have you ever gone without something you needed to buy a book instead? Hell, yes. All the time!
