sound a lot like me. The only thing I check out of the library is audio books!
However, I do buy books off the local library sale shelves (hard covers $1-$2,
paperbacks $0.10 at one library and $0.50 at another) and I live for library
book sales (especially on the last day when they have an 'everything you can
fit into a paper bag' for $3 sale)
The used book store near me is awfully expensive in comparison (and I love
being able to give money to a good cause... and sometimes sneak a book I bought
there previously back onto the shelves!). It's unfortunate that not all
libraries have ongoing or even annual/semi-annual book sales.
Of course, since I show up to the library every Saturday and leave with my
arms full of 10-20 books I bet they wonder what in the world I'm doing with
them all! So addictive...
