Book Gluttony! Are your eyes bigger than your book belly? Do you have a habit of buying up books far quicker than you could possibly read them? Have you had to curb your book buying habits until you can catch up with yourself? Or are you a controlled buyer, only purchasing books when you have run out of things to read?


Haha.. interesting question.. When i'm in a book store, i'd usually able to find at least a couple of new books that i'm tempted to buy.. however, what i end up buying would depends on whether how desperate i was (ie i've totally run out of things to read).. how badly i wanted that book (eg i've been searching for it for a while).. and how much i've already spend that week/month.. but dont congratulate me yet - even if i have not run out of things to read and have spend way too much on books already but still have the itch to get new materials - i'd go to the 2nd-hand bookstore & stock up from there..

however with the booksale-craze that's been going on for the last few mths, plus my recent interactions with GR folks, any control that i have managed to placed upon myself on book-buying has gone out the window.. ;p and i have my empty purse to prove it.. (and i still want to go to that big bad wolf booksale to check out more books.. *shame*)

One thing for sure.. it truly is difficult to remember to control yourself when it come to buying books.. if only books are not that expensive or that i have un-limited budget (& space).. sigh.. so wishful thinking, i know.... hehe..
