I hardly ever buy books (as much as I love ‘em we literally have no space to store more!) but when I do I tend to use Amazon (at least when I’m searching for a specific book). I adore bookshops and browsing through them, one day when I have more time for that I’ll probably buy books locally more again….

Being that mine are old enough to babysit themselves, I felt it was high time I made the change. I usually put my life goals out in public (in some fashion) to keep me committed to them. Otherwise, backsliding is a distinct possibility…!
