...Are you spending enough or way over?...

A blog I frequent suggested I check out several articles of interest… one of them which happened to be this one: “Trendspotting: Readers’ Spending On Books“. So — being the avid reader & book junkie that I am — I couldn’t help but click over and read the short piece about readers’ current spending habits.
My questions for today are ones that are asked at the end of this particular article:

What are  your responses to this report? Does it match with what you –as a reader– have observed? With your own buying habits? When was the last time you bought a book? What did you buy and why?

To be honest, I haven't thought much about the "publishing" side of loving books. I mean, I love to read so I buy books ( if I can ) or borrow from the library. That's all there is to me. People buy books because they want to or like to. In my case, a lot of thinking comes to play whether I want to buy this particular book or not.

I only buy books that I want to have my own copy of, where I can make notes or marked important phrase or paragraphs. I could not anymore remember when was the last time I bought a  book. Must have been a long time, I suppose.
