There ought to be more of us

Many people indulge in retail therapy but mine takes a unique form. When I feel sad, I buy books. And when I feel happy... I also buy books. ("Damn, that conversation was upsetting, I guess I better hie me to a bookstore and fetch home treasure to comfort me!" "Yay, that's so cool, what I need to celebrate is to buy some books!")

If more people were like me, the publishing industry would be well on its way to recovery.

Now if only I could find time to read all the books that I buy....

*smiles* I feel your pain, hon! There's a stack of books next to my bed waiting for my attention, and what did I do this past weekend? Spent my Amazon gift card...on more books.

It's a sickness, but I don't want to get well. :D

It's incurable! It's a good kind of sickness, the way some bacteria is actually good for you! I could stop at any time, I just choose not to!
