>I love reading and love going to B&N to look for books to buy but end up leaving empty handed because i tell myself I can just borrow from the library

I cannot tell you the number of times I have visited a Waterstones and thought exactly this! So comforting to hear that it isn't just me.

With that said, whilst I would like to say I only read Library books, most of my planned reading for the next few months are books I own except for a few history books and biographies which it just makes no sense to spend the money on when they're available for free down the road.
