This week’s musing asks…

Where do you buy / get most of your books?

My Answer...

Since I got my Nook, I'm not buying print books as much but the places I do get them from are Barnes & Noble, Borders, WalMart, Target, and Paperpback Swap. For my ebooks I get them mainly from B&N, but also Fictionwise, Kobo, Smashwords and Sony EBook Store.

I used to only use the library for my DVDs and audio books, but since I got my ereader, I've also been downloading my books from them for free.

I've saved alot of money since getting my ereader because 90% of my book downloads have been for free.

    I have never tried ereader. Maybe I should look into it. But, I have so many books waiting to be read, it will have to be put on the back burner.

    I borrow most everything I read and listen to from the library. I do shop at the second hand book store frequently as well.

    I started using paperback swap a few months ago and I love it!

    My musing is here.

    I'm finding lots of great ideas here today...

    However, even if I didn't buy or receive another book from this day forward, I currently have enough books in my house to read for another year...or more.

    Not likely to get an e-reader in near future!

    Have a great reading week ahead! Here is my Mondays: Mailbox/Where Am I/Musings post.

    Getting an ereader would certainly change the way I get and read books. Right now, I get my books from a wide variety of sources: online (Amazon), at bookstores (new and used), from authors, agents, and publishers.

    90% of ebooks free. That is worth having a Nook for.
