What do you collect as a hobby?

[Woodhouse]

I collect books!  I like to keep every book I read for no reason really; I just can't bare the idea of getting rid of a good book even when I am done with it.  I have shelves and shelves of them.  I could make my own mini library .  Maybe this is a reason I could never buy a kindle... Having the physical book is way better to me.

I many books also. I tend to give them away or lend them out. If I like a book enough I will buy the hardback, keep it & reread or reference from time to time. I agree, reading on a tablet is just not the same. That being said digital textbooks are great. 

School book prices have sky-rocked since the clinton administration. Plus, textbooks are massive & heavy. Sometimes they are so thick that its a challenge to get them in my backpack especially if I have a coat or something. When my sciatic nerve pain kicks in, its unbearable to carry heavy packs. 

I have a great resource for FREE digital books PM me if you are interested. I can try to find the appropriate thread & post website & download instructions.
