I used to buy a lot of books when I went to Germany but over the years with the Euro being higher than the dollar and the fact that English books are more expensive anyway, I've bought fewer books on each visit. <br /><br />Well, even here I don't buy a lot of new hardbacks. They are just so expensive. I don't mind the paperbacks but hardbacks have to be by an author I really love.Ilianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026669671843769219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253232837359768277.post-85230212626128245272009-07-16T18:05:12.003+02:002009-07-16T18:05:12.003+02:00I actually hardly ever buy books the year they com...I actually hardly ever buy books the year they come out anymore. There are a few exceptions, but generally if I read a book published this year, it will be an ARC.

I can understand your decision. I'm so lucky to have the library to depend on for those!<br /><br />LezlieLezliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05747969193923246804noreply@blogger.com
