Probably going on 14 years now. Longer if you don't include research for my undergrad thesis. Probably closer to 20 years if you're talking purely recreational reading. I'm very stubborn in that I want to read a very specific book RIGHT NOW! And the public libraries where I grew up . . . let's just say they left a lot to be desired in the selection of titles they carried.<br /><br />Plus, I'm a book hoarder. They have to belong to ME, and me only!

Finally found them tucked away under my Harry Potter books on my bookshelf. Apparently, at some point, I thought that was a good idea. *rolls eyes*<br /><br />Oh, I was hanging my head big time over the library questions.
