I take pics of books I would maybe read in the bookstore so I can later cross reference them with what libraries have so I can read it for free. One problem though, I forget about all those pics and never look to see if the libraries do have them unless I remember the authors name by heart.
I already have Goodreads. Too many on my wish list already. Over 2000 on my To-Read list. Lol. I never have looked for new titles on Goodreads though. I usually do a keyword search to find books on Google and goodreads will come up with similar titles. Ex. Books similar to the Red Queen series. @ Donna Brigandi
My favourite book store is a bit like a labyrinth…6 rooms filled with floor to ceiling books. Much as I’d love to skip I’d probably start a book avalanche…but what a way to go ??
My kids do?
You sure you don’t do that as well? Lol
@Evan I’m sure? I’m a klutz so…I may end up skipping straight into a shelf and get banned so…no skipping for me.
I am usually too weighted down with new books.
??
Yes, I’m guilty. I have done that. ??♀️?
Haha been there done that! I admit it! ?
My daughters do like wild antelope in excitement. I do it sedately…
Yes! One time when they had the book I really really wanted I even happy danced haha ?
Like that? Lol
No
No but I trip those who do and laugh my ass off about it
It’s hard to skip in a wheelchair but I do on the inside.
Maybe in my heart lol. I’m 41, skipping has skipped on for me ?
No I don’t, but I do walk really really fast from my car to the bookstore. Lol
Not when you’re endowed like dolly Parton lol
Yes….. Yes I do
Yes
I frolic.
Feel like it
YAS
If I skipped I’d give myself black eyes.
No because I can miss something, but I can be found on the floor a lot, lol.
@Charlene maybe just a little ?
Yes.
At 75 my skipping days are over-I move a little faster is all.
No….I meander…but I DO skip TO the bookstore ?
^^ That here, me in BAM.
I skip all over
No matter where
If I skipped, I’d fall on my face. I settle for rushing through stacks, grabbing everything that catches my eye.

Try using Goodreads. I have tons of lists. On my wish list I record books, and wether library or bookshop.

When I’m in a book store all I do is smile and go row by row looking at all the books.
No, but I feel like bursting into song like in a musical.

Yes I have before
Why don’t bookstores have slide ladders anymore? Honestly?
Right? *shakes head*
I don’t skip but I do impersonate Veruca Salt from Willy Wonka and sing I want it now.
Don’t be a bad egg ?
