What do you do with your finished books?

With the books I've finished, I normally keep them. Especially if they're really good. Since I don't buy books much, I would read my favorites over again. But sometimes if it's bad or I don't like it, I would donate it to the library since I certainly wouldn't read it anymore.

I love te books that I buy, and I will often read them again and again, just as I'll listen to a good piece of music again and again and again. I read my books and then I put them on my shelf so hat I can read them again some day.

If they're hardback I donate them to my public library. The paperbacks I can take and actually trade out for more paperbacks at the library.

I usually keep it but some I have already given to friends. If you want to sell them try it on a local second hand bookstore instead because they might fetch a better price there, Happy reading!

Yeah, I just keep mine. I know you weren't really looking for that answer, but, hey....... You can always lend them to people, and there may come a time when you'll want to read them again.

I'm so glad I came across this post!! I tell everyone that likes to read about this site. It's called paperbackswap. What you do is you post all the old books you have that you don't want anymore, and other people on the site do the same. You can search for any book that you might like and "order" it from anyone that has it posted. You pay nothing! They pay for the shipping to get it to you, and in return when someone "orders" a book from you all you have to do is pay for it to go to them. I've gotten, literally, dozens of books this way. It's terrific! It's free to join, and there aren't any catches. You print the label right off your printer and it even tells you how much postage to affix to the label! It's so easy. You're gonna love it.

I keep most of mine. If I don't like the book, I put it on a book swapping site like What's on My Bookshelf.

Its just there in the house kept in one corner, there are times that I feel like reading it again, when I have the time and the chance I read it again specially those of my favorites.

I don't read books I've already read either. I can't sell them to a second hand store because the one near here just give credit and I can't read used books. The musty smell makes me sneeze. I donate my books to a library. The library sells them to make money a few times a year. That way they aren't wasted. I don't think there's much of a market for used books otherwise. Ebay has too many fees for me to sell anything there.

I just put the finished book on the book shelf. And the book of my primary and in school, almost selled to the people who buy garbages. And I think they are back to foctory to make a paper and make a bood again. I think this really waisting. If those book can come back to school and give other child to use, there can't be wasting so many papers.

I usually keep them on the bookshelves. That way, people can borrow the books that I have used so that they don't have to spend money on that particular book. I am also the type of person who likes rereading a certain book or novel, so I keep the books I've already read.

I personally prefer to keep my books, because I like to reread them. However, if eBay doesn't cut it for you, what you might want to do is donate them to your local library. You can often get a nice tax deduction for your troubles, especially if the books are in good condition. Or you could always host a garage sale and include all your books in it for cheap. Get a bit more money that way and get rid of them.

I usually take them to a used book store that buys and sells books.then use that money to buy new ones the amount the give is 1/10th of the cover price, but since I live in an apartment and have little storage room,I cannot bring myself to throw them away. I hope this was helpful

I keep them in a room so that whenever i wanna read it again i could. Especially my favorites that are stored in a cabinet
