message 5: by Cat (new)

Cat (catology) a couple months ago I went to a secondhand book store and bought 11/13 of the Series of Unfortunate Events, since they are so expensive when you buy them full price. normally I only buy 1-2 things when book shopping, unless it's a secondhand shop :)

Chesca (thecrownedpages) (thecrownedpages) | 7 comments 4 books, and I usually buy from bookstores. I can't carry much because I have scoliosis. :/

Ju (Kaisu) | 2 comments 3 is my maximum, both online and in a bookstore. If I listened to my heart I would buy more but I would feel guilty for spending so much money.. :/


message 18: by linn ☾ (new)

linn ☾ (linnb16) | 3 comments In stores the most I've bought was 3, it's quite expensive here. And online the most amount was 6, but I'm planing on buying even more the next time :)


Konstantina✨️ (itskt) | 17 comments Well I'm a fangirl from Greece that moved to Ireland a few years ago, so you can probably guess that I can not find any books in my native language(even though I read in English perfectly, I want to read in Greek too sometimes). So when I go to Greece for holidays, I return with 3-6 books in Greek.

But last Christmas, I went back to Ireland with 11 books squished in my luggage. One of these was Red Queen, and two of the others were the last Chronicles of Narnia books, so no regrets.
