I can’t remember the last time I did a tag, so I’m super excited to have a fun one to share with you. Cristina from My Tiny Obsessions tagged me for The Anonymous Bookaholics Tag. Thanks, Cristina!
WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT BUYING NEW BOOKS?
The rush I get when I buy a physical copy of a book is a little insane. I do it so rarely that it’s so much fun. I really try to limit myself on buying books, though. If I start to overflow my bookcase, my husband starts to complain.
HOW OFTEN DO YOU BUY NEW BOOKS?
Honestly, I try not to purchase books too often. I always check the e-book and regular library first. NetGalley is a savior, too.
BOOKSTORE OR ONLINE BOOK SHOPPING – WHICH DO YOU PREFER?
If I’m going to buy a physical copy, it’s more fun to get it from the bookstore. I usually end up ordering them from Amazon due to the cheaper prices, though.
DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE BOOKSHOP?

YES! My absolute favorite bookstore is Powell’s City of Books in Portland, Oregon. I’ve been there three times and each time was completely overwhelming. So many floors of books.
DO YOU PRE-ORDER BOOKS?
Only if it’s one of my favorite authors.
DO YOU HAVE A MONTHLY BOOK BUYING LIMIT?
My husband would say yes, that it’s zero books. Lol. But no, I don’t. I just try not to buy so many that he’ll notice all of the Kindle charges on the credit card bill.
BOOK BUYING BANS – ARE THEY SOMETHING FOR YOU?
Not really. I just do my best not to buy books unless I have to (ie: new favorite author release or binge reading a series when the library doesn’t have them).
HOW BIG IS YOUR WISHLIST?
I don’t think I can answer that. My TBR expands daily.
WHICH THREE BOOKS FROM YOUR WISHLIST DO YOU WISH TO OWN NOW?
I wish to own these three books because they’re not out yet! I need them! (Click on the book covers to be taken to their Goodreads pages.)

THAT BOOKSHOP <3 I would LOVE to go there, I'd spend hours in there haha. Lovely answers! 🙂
Thank you! It’s pretty amazing. I get so overwhelmed when I’m there.
Thanks for the tag! I was just thinking about how I haven’t done one in awhile.
You’re welcome! 🙂 They’re nice to do every once in a while.
City of Books looks overwhelmingly AMAZING. I would probably end up staying there the whole day is Oregan wasn’t so far from me. 😛 You definitely need to build yourself a secret cave where your husband won’t have any knowledge of all the amazing books you’d get! 😀

I wish I could have spent the whole day there. Luckily, I was able to go twice this summer since we went to Portland more than once. It’s about 3 hours for me, so I don’t get to do it often.
I guess technically my Kindle is my book cave then! 😉
