Do you find your own books, or request them online and have them waiting for you?
80% find their books on their own
20% request them and have them waiting
I’m surprised at the large percentage that don’t use the library. Honestly, how many people go back and re-read books? I understand buying reference books, but book that are read for pleasure – I can probably think of less than 5 books I’ve re-read in my life.
Do you re-read books?
If so, what are some that you’re gone back to read again?
