- I get as many ebooks as I can. Just need to get that ebook reader so I can do it all more effectively. Any books that I own I pass them around with my friends and family then they get donated. If I want a book that is not available by ebook and I can not get it at the library I buy it second hand.

- I just bought an e-book reader. When I go to the bookstore, I take the bus. I donate books I don't want to the library so they can sell them to buy needed supplies. I share books with my friends.
