Booking Through Thursday

Booking Through ThursdayA weekly meme about (mostly) books and reading. This week’s question is:
Do you have friends and family to share books with? Discuss them with? Does it matter to you?

I’ll share books I don’t intend to keep on my permanent book shelf, which is most of them. If I kept every book there would be no space left in the house for me! My beloved science fiction books have a special place on my shelf and I’ll only share them with a few people that will return them unharmed. Otherwise I like to pass on whatever I’m reading to people that I think might enjoy the book or discover a new author.

We don’t really discuss them other than, “Did you like the book?”. I’ve never joined any book clubs because I like to pick my own books and my reading tastes are a bit eclectic. Does it matter to me? Not really, I have plenty of places on the internet to discuss and read about books.

    Interesting viewpoint. I don’t really talk to anyone about the books I read. The books I have read go either to the Library, or a used bookstore.

    The problem with book clubs is not everyone may have the same interests. I would much rathe share thoughts on a book with a friend with a common interest. Like you my sci-fi and fantasy are permanently fixed in my home! Have a great BTT!
