Even though I haven’t purchased my textbooks for school just yet, I’ll hang on to them for as long as I live.
Asking me to share or sell my books is like asking me to give up a limb.
I already started the collection by buying a text I don’t need for any of my classes.
Why?
Why not?
And here is where you and I become opposites, lol.
I’ve kept a few of my English books, though. I think I may actually go back to them for reference sometime.

Ah. I’ve convinced myself I’ll need all these books for future reference. 😉

You can never have too many books. They are part of who we are.

My thoughts exactly. I just need to make room for them. 😉

I still have most of my textbooks simply because no one has bought them yet 😛 I’m keeping all my English Lit. ones and a couple others that I thought were interesting or I know I’ll use in future, but the rest are getting sold. However, since no one’s bought them yet I might just end up keeping them anyway 😛

Aha, that’s okay. You can cherish them. 🙂 I’m going to keep mine in pristine condition even though I don’t plan on selling them.

I still have far, FAR, too many books left from college and grad school that I haven’t cracked open in years. Why? One, they were stinking expensive and I hate getting rid of something that cost so much money. And two, I always think I’ll use them again in the future. Though I rarely have. Le sigh.

I hear you. The individual price of one book is insane., not to mention five or six added together. I wouldn’t have the heart to resell the books for half price or even less than that. 😦

Oh, me neither. It’s insane what they cost and, oftentimes, how little they’re used.

Ugh I hope the price was worth it. I’m going to use the books to their fullest.
