I bought a few that I use for work. I have been going to the library every two weeks to get books “just for reading”.

I want to say 20 but I may be underestimating. So we have reading to do which is a great problem to have.

I also use BookBub and usually only get the ebooks if they are free. I use the library for physical books as well as digital and audio books. I subscribe to Audible and Kindle Unlimited. I’m glad you all understand!
