This is exactly me! I can’t stop and will not stop buying books. I love looking round charity shops for books as you never know what you’re going to find. I also see it as helping the charities 😊

One of my favourite joys is finding a book I’ve wanted to read for so long in a charity shop 💕

Yes to TSH!! I really want to reread it despite my never-ending to be read pile looming in front of me haha.

But I think, like me, you're a mood reader, and it doesn't matter whether or not we have 10 books on our list, if that one in the store just sparkles and lights up our reader eyes, then who are we to ignore that call?

went through something super similar at the end of last year where I didn’t purchase any books for about 2ish months (very unlike me) but hey I love books and I love reading and I’m very grateful to have a partner who will patiently watch me walk around the bookstore whenever my heart desires <3 also your reading of this is so beautiful I could listen to you talk forever!!!
