I'm a collector type reader.

I have a huge personal library of thrifted books, but for specific series as of the moment I know the only way to read them is to check them from the library (looking at you star wars) as I usually dont want to buy them new unless I can get a discount and specific titles I've never seen in person or online in physical form.

I got spoiled on bag sales where I could get upwards of 20+ books tetrised into a bag and only pay $5 for it. I got nearly 300 if I remember correctly before they ended it for my area.

That being said I have so many that I've also concluded that I'll never read them all if I just read the physical, so I've had to start checking out audiobooks for the ones I want to read but aren't too invested in or high priority for paying attention. I've never really done audiobooks outside of when my classes would have them playing and we'd read along, so it's a minor adjustment.

I'll probably end up with a split of having read library checkouts and read frim my collection, while still owning all the physical copies (like the Maze Runner series. I'm listening on audio, but I have the physical books I'm annotating with little colored flags)
