113 books this read -- FREE

I love to read. That much is obvious. But I buy many books at book sales, garage sales, etc. through the year. Of course, there is sometimes a book I want to read that is new or I can't find at the library or a book sale. In that case, I will order it new. On my shelves at the moment are four books I bought new, paying full price.

I'll sell what I can after I read them to re-coup losses. (Most people will tell you that reading is an expensive hobby.) I keep a chart to see how much reading costs me for the year

However, last night I sold the book Authority Abusers . What made this significant is that is not only did I get the last little bit back that I needed to make this a year of FREE reading, but I also made two dollars on my hobby of reading this year. Not a way to get rich, but it's always nice to finish the year in black on anything, including how much spent on books read this year!

I should probably start tracking how much I spend on books a year -- maybe it'd keep me from spending so much next year! :P (or not!) LOL

Great blog! :P (the *other* Jenn from CBXers!) ;)
