So, Barnes and Noble showed up in my email with 50% off all hardcovers. I may have gone a little crazy today and picked up a few that seem difficult to get from the library. #oops

Has anyone had any experience with buying books via the PangoBooks App?

readwithcori Would love to hear if someone has. I‘ve downloaded it but never used it. 2y
Pigpen_Reads I have and it was good. I bought 1 book send received it in just a few days. I was sent tracking too. PangoBooks kept me informed of my order. I will definitely be buying through the app. I plan to sell some books too. 2y

Hooked_on_books I never thought I‘d say this, but down with the CDC! 😂 3y
Librariana @Hooked_on_books - Long live the ever-growing TBR pile! 😁😊 (but in other news, I DO get my first dose Tuesday of next week AND that same Saturday is Indie Bookstore Day! So TWO fabulous events in one week! Yay!! 🥳) 3y
aa_guer2021 I tried. And then a couple of #thriftstore book hauls happened. At least I haven‘t gotten a new, new book for over a year... that counts, right? 3y
Hooked_on_books That‘s a great confluence! So you can reward yourself for getting vaccinated by buying books and supporting indie bookstores! Sometimes things ARE right with the world. 😬 3y

Went on a bit of a shopping spree on book depository. I have more coming in from a couple indies that I love too... I'm very excited for all of these!!

Side note for people doing swaps- stick a Post-It in your books saying who sent them to you and what swap it was for! I've had so many instances of wanting to shout people out (like whoever here got me hooked on Death Note), but by the time I read them, I can't remember who sent them!

TheDaysGoBy Such a good idea! I‘ll have to do that going forward 4y

Ordered four books from Ebay and most importantly I've finally got The Chalk Man 😍
I only have two more planned reads for August after I've finished my current reads so I reckon I can squeeze it in #10daystogo

Also got One Mile Under by Andrew Gross, Dark Sacred Night by Michael Connelly and Mr Mercedes by Stephen King. I love buying books on Ebay ❤

TrishB I have a duplicate copy of the last one in the King trilogy, you‘re welcome to it when you get to it. Just give me a shout. 5y
suzie.reads Thanks @TrishB that's so kind but the hubby already has the other two, he just didn't have Mr Mercedes. I've never read any Stephen King but King is his favourite author. 5y
TrishB No probs. King is my fav too 😁 5y
suzie.reads @TrishB I can't actually believe I've never read any. I don't like horror and was convinced they were all horror 😂😂 5y
TrishB There‘s quite a few non- horror, but I love a good horror anyway. 5y

Last weekend @KennethTolesJr and I, @TheBookAddict , went on a quest to find some books to add to our personal library. It was late at night and probably should‘ve just been in bed, but Kenny had to scratch a book-buying-itch 🤷🏽‍♀️. So, we ended up with this lovely #haul and we talked all about it on our 14th #podcast episode!

Have any of you heard any more about this?

I got a slightly cryptic email from #BarnesandNoble with little information but a tempting, enticing message about #TBRlists being long, the upcoming #bookhaul being short, and the countdown beginning.

All I could find online were news articles about last year's August blowout sale...

And if this one is anything like that one, it'll be quite a treat!

Cinfhen Thanks for sharing although my husband is silently cursing you 😂😂😂😂😂😂 5y
Reecaspieces I could not find anything either. Glad to know I am not alone! 5y
Ashley_Nicoletto I asked the girl working the register when I was in the store on Friday about it. She said they will be pulling hundred of books (not the bargain books just normal books off the shelves) and putting them on tables in the front and they will all be half off. Members get to start shopping them on Tuesday. Everyone else Wednesday. 5y

Librariana @Cinfhen - To borrow from the wise words of Millie of Bob's Burgers fame (in "The Millie-churian Candidate" episode), "I'm strong... I have to be strong... for Wagstaff." Except in my case, I'm strong because it's a tough job to spread the bookish news! But I'll do it! For Litsy ? 5y
Librariana @Reecaspieces - There's definitely news articles about the last blowout sale on August 2018 because it was their very first... and I attended that one! Scored some stuff for my bestie, too. But this time around, little to no coverage. No matter! I'll be there anyway! 5y
Librariana @Ashley_Nicoletto - Then it'll be just like the one last August and I looooved that one! I walked away with 3 books that had been on my TBR list AND a cool new tote 😁 Will definitely be checking this one out, too! Thanks for the 411, Ashley! 😊💜📚 5y
Cinfhen I hope it‘s available online too!!! Because I can‘t physically get inside a B&N #ExpatLife 😫😫😫 5y
Librariana @Cinfhen - I'm sure you've seen it by now, but it is available online too!! Did you score any goodies? 5y
Cinfhen I did see and no, there really wasn‘t anything that screamed out at me🙁How about you? Do you bring home a #bookhaul ?!?!? 5y
Librariana @Cinfhen - Not quite a haul, my dear... just picked up one from the sale area - 5y
Librariana @Cinfhen - in regards to the ⬆️, it is one I've read and wanted to have in my collection so that worked out quite well! Nothing else really jumped out at me other than one I already own - 5y

I‘ve been doing pretty good about not buying books but I had a free book on thriftbooks and needed to finish up a couple series that were available on book outlet. I feel a wee bit guilty 😬 but I‘m also excited for books! 😅

LibrarianRyan I join you in your guilt. I have 20+ books coming from the book outlet sale. Then there was the one week only 50% off sale at BN. Yep that was 6 it was it 7 more books. Yikes. I just couldn‘t help myself. Some are for swaps so that helps me feel better. 6y
Ash.on.the.line @LibrarianRyan I‘m glad I‘m not completely alone. I avoided the book outlet sale because I knew I‘d go crazy! Going to try and limit myself for awhile. Hopefully no sales for just a bit! 6y

I am on a strict Big Bad Book Buying Ban and maaaaan I keep finding wonderful books to buy.

The one yanking my chain the most now is the wonderful special edition of Summer In Orcus by T. Kingfisher. For some reason the book does not show up here..

My Big Bad Book Buying Ban ends up at the end of June and hoo boy do I have books lined up. There are some real gems to be published soon!

1. Typically, I would say 2. This month? I think I'm at 15-20 (not all for me! Some for @Grrlbrarian for #FeedaReader and for @Tera66 for #ConanDoyleSwap 😁)

2. As long as I could use the library, I could go a year without buying new books (but please don't make me!)

3. Camping at Bon Echo Provincial Park.

4. Not this trip!

5. Will do!

Hi, my name is Holly and I have a problem. I can't stop buying books.
Originally, I was planning a book buying ban for February. Instead, that somehow morphed into me buying an obscene amount of books.
March is shaping up to be a long month, since I am determined once again to not buy any more books.

So, here's my question ....do book buying bans actually work? How do YOU resist temptation ??

#bookbuyingban #BBB #savemefrommyself

jillannjohn I‘ve tried. Can‘t do it. I‘ll probably never read all the books I own! 6y
elkeOriginal It‘s like eating chocolate - if you ban yourself completely then you will lose your mind and then binge like a crazy person. Cut back, but not completely. Think for a minute. It helps. 6y
CSeydel I sate the urge by bringing home huge stacks from the library! 6y
See All 12 Comments
Kalalalatja I‘m on a ban now, and the struggle is real! My lust for new books feels so much bigger than normal, but I made a bet with my bf, and I really need to stick to it!!! 6y
Ddzmini Uh oh are you sure it may be a mistake 😳📚 6y
TheLibrarian So I originally was going to do a ban but decided I was setting myself up for failure. Instead, I‘m limiting myself to only a certain amount of books/spending less money than the previous year. 6y
2BR02B @CSeydel I do the same- libraries all the way. I also ask myself tough questions: am I likely to read this anytime soon, or will it just be collecting dust for the foreseeable future? Is it a deal I'm unlikely to find again? If it checks out, like if it's a book club pick I'm reading soon that I can't get from the library, I allow myself to buy it. 6y
2BR02B I also find that most of my personal library is unread books- I rarely reread, and often get rid of books I've already read. So I'll do things like reading samples of books on Amazon before I commit to buying them, in an effort to buy fewer books I'm going to end up giving 1- or 2-star ratings, or DNFing altogether. 6y
CSeydel @2BR02B Exactly! I‘ve bought more books this year than usual because 1: our book club keeps picking brand-new books that have like 138 holds at the library, so I have to buy them, and 2: I got the Kindle app on my phone and I can‘t resist a 1.99 deal for a book that‘s already in my TBR! 6y
2BR02B @CSeydel Those kindle deals just bomb my otherwise-sensible approach to book buying. I had to unsubscribe from all the deals emails I was getting once I realized I had nearly 1000 unread kindle books... 6y
Paula3 If you figure out how to stop buying books please let me know. 🙃 6y
Hooked_on_books I don‘t believe bans work for people like us. What I‘m trying to do this year is read more of my own books than the number of new books I acquire. I don‘t know if it‘s going to work yet, but I did really well in January. I used a couple of Christmas gift cards in February, so that has skewed my numbers a bit. 6y

I've purchased SEVENTEEN books in January 2018. Most of them were cheap Kindle deals (my Kryptonite). Two physical books at full price, and two digital that were over $5. We're not off to a good start on this controlling the book-buying thing. 🙃🙈

Posting it on here in the hopes that cone-of-shaming myself might curb the February purchases. We'll see.
