When you’re getting books do you prefer to get new ones or secondhand ones?
I really enjoy the “hunt” for used editions of books that I want, and browsing through stacks in used bookstores is fun and neat way to discover books that I might not ever run across otherwise! But I’m kind of picky about the condition of books I buy, so sometimes I just go the easy route and pick up a new copy. Or if it’s a book I don’t want to wait to read I’ll snag a new one!
I try to make environmentally conscious decisions and I’ll admit books are still a huge blind spot for me in that regard. I do still try to get used when I can, but I’m much more likely to unnecessarily get new books than I am to get new clothes, for instance. Books don’t feel like a “consumer good” in quite the same way for whatever reason.
