This week's question is: Do you own any doubles of your books? What led to getting that second...or third or fourth...copy? - Suggested by a GREAT read.  



Yes I have three doubles haha, let me tell you how that happened. Last semester I took my YA literature class, we had a list of books that we had to read. I bought almost all of the books in my kindle, but the ones that I really loved I actually went and bought the physical book. I literally bought them just so that I could hug them haha. And those books were The Book Thief and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, as for the third book it's The Hunger Games. I had the book with me but I decided to buy the ebook just so that it could be one more less thing for me to carry around my university, and because it's easier to search for a quote.

  3. Haha, I didn't even bother to count the duplicates on my Kindle, because I kind of tend to think of the eBooks and the physical books on myself as separate things. I know they're not really, because they're books but hey! I do have a few doubles though due to thinks like ARC's that I went ahead and bought finished copies of, books I was gifted with or had forgotten I already had and bought again, and lastly cover changes because I'm crazy and like for my covers in a series to match. lol.

    Definitely new to your blog and following you!

    Happy Reading and Hopping! :)

    You had a YA literature class?? Soo jealous, we never had any cool classes like that! I have all these books, only one copy mind, but I just bought Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children so haven't read that one yet.

    Thanks for the follow :)

  8. I remember studying my english degree and needing extra copies to find quotes and scribble in the margins! You've just reminded me I have about 4 copies of Jane Eyre :-)

  9. I sometimes buy physical copies of books I have an e-book or audiobook of too. Both if I love the book and if I love the cover. I want to be able to stare at it, because I have a problem!

    Happy FF! New Bloglovin follower.

  11. I tend to have very few duplicate books but I know I end up with additional copies on my Kindle - it's just easy to take it everywhere. :)

    Had a great time wandering around your blog.
