I’m a heavy library user so not much. I did pay the largest fine of my life last month. $15. Ouch. But I probably average $10-15 a month on books…between used booksales or library fines
Ours lets you bring in food up to $5 for food pantry instead of cash. I forgot to renew about 30 books (between my children and myself) for a few days and we were locked out (you get locked at $10). I look at it as my user fee. My entire family are heavy library users typically having about 50-70 items out at a time. So it’s money well spent on the occasional fine
I shop 3 times a year at my library booksale and spend about $30 each time. Might pick up a book here and there at rummage sales thrift shop, etc. Overall less than $10 a month. I get books from the library a lot as well.
My mom used to ask how to punish me because she didn’t want to take away my book. Because instead of going out with other teens my age, I’d sit at home and read.
I mostly do the library, and pick up used books sometimes at garage sales and such. It is my treat when we go on vacation to find a used book store to splurge at. I usually spend around $60, and that’s a twice a year thing
More than I can really afford…but not anywhere near as much as I’d like lol
Bit like calories. Don’t look therefore they don’t exist 🙂
Kindle Unlimited is the best for me 🙂
Given all the secondhand booksales I get to, I’d say maybe $10-20 some months. Though I’ve had three different sales on as many Saturdays as well.
No one needs to know that! No one! :p
I have a daughter that is a mad reader so I spend double ?

My library would write off the fee or I wait until November (amnesty month)

I think my library has a Max of 10? It’s also a tiny library.
Library
I refuse to think about it! ??
Too Much

I spend at least 100 a month sometimes 200 sometimes nothing lol
Book bub for daily eBook deals some even free
My parents complaign that i spend too much(95%) of my monthly allowance on books rather than clothes or shoes like normal teens
My daughters the same ?

omg same here!!my mum gives me punishment by actually telling me to go out and socialize hahaha
She once told me “I wish you would watch TV or something. So I had something to take away from you.”
omigod this makes so much sense haha
Shh, my husband doesn’t know.
I don’t even want to know!
More than i can really afford….but could spend a lot more ?
Nope I will not look into it. Prices don’t exist. It’s all numbers, it doesn’t mean anything. Anyway I always hated maths so …
My husband in an accountant and has frequently told me that I spend at least $50.00 a month on books… I regret nothing! ??
I’d average it to $45-$50 when I am buying books.
Haha. I wish i could monthly..its more like..oo bills are paid i have extra. Tax return time i spend about $150
Mmmmm. I’m not saying…
Sometimes as much as $60. Not counting books I bought from people on Facebook cause they were practically free and shipping doesn’t count LOL
Between £20 to £40 a month (mainly ebooks). I mean, it’s not even the cost of a decent night out…….
I don’t even want to know honestly!
Ummm…I don’t want to even think about it
$50
I try and keep it down to maybe $40.. thankfully my partner doesn’t mind. I tell him that he has his smoking habit and i have my book addiction lol
I’m pretty good. Some months none. Others 300
In April and May, I spent over $200 in books. So far this month, I have spent about $40/$50.
I try not to send too much money. I have my kindle that I down load books on and also go to Barnes & Noble .
Library always
If we all pooled that money together, we could build a library that would put Belle’s to shame ?
