I wanted to say much more...<br /><br />Gautami - I really prefer to own books, but I have been using the library more than usual this year, too.<br /><br />Matt - As they say, great minds think alike ;-)<br /><br />Nise' - After a really heavy novel, a little frivolity can be a relief.<br /><br />Ted - This was actually a difficult BTT...I kept want to add a 'but' or 'and'!<br /><br />Bokunosekai - I think of frivolous as a 'beach read'...fun every now and then.<br /><br />Darlene - I'm very fussy about the used books I buy, and have been know to return library books unread if they smell bad! That said though, I've been using my library a lot more this year.JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-13149302070558774002009-07-23T22:24:38.311-04:002009-07-23T22:24:38.311-04:00I agree with you on the owning your own books and ...I agree with you on the owning your own books and liking new.

I find it difficult to capture my reading behavior in multiple choices!<br /><br />I prefer a plot-driven novel that slowly unfolds in fruity and lush prose, with multiple layers and allusion that indulge my mind long after I turn the last page like the lingering aftertaste of a good glass of wine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-60729303786585547852009-07-23T10:33:38.565-04:002009-07-23T10:33:38.565-04:00Some are similar to mine!
