Hello, fellow book dragons! and bloggers and readers! We have been around for a while and we have answer questions on tags, and this has been lovely for so long time! I was thinking about my experience in the US and also at second-hand books, and I want to let you know, why I like them!

There are multiple reasons why I should be getting and read a second-hand!

1. Recycle! You are not cutting another tree for paper! This is like recycling! So you get the same book that someone had, you are not requesting more “new” books and no need to print another one just for you!
2. Savings! Also, if you get that book used or second-hand book, you are not only helping the planet, but also your pocket! let’s are honest, they are way cheaper and we are not in the position to keep spending so much money on books… and again, for 4 second-hand books, you can get 1 new!
3. More stories! These books have more stories than the one written! For example, my BF is in the Philippines, so he took his book of Anihillation with him. Now, that book is telling its story and my BF story in another country! So they will have little marks, maybe notes, and even a signature from the previous owner! that is so valuable for me XD
4. Wrinkles! we hate wrinkles in our books, I get that. If the book is new, you try to take care of it with all your might, but if you see the copy a little beat up, it makes you wonder: “where have you been? which stories do you remember? how many hands have hold you? how did you get all mess up?”
5. Stress free! I mean if the book is all beaten up, you don’t have to worry that much about taking extrem care of it! XD
6. The smell! The smell and the yellowish of the sheets! old and wise!

We went to a second-hand book store in Capitol Hill in DC, and I loved it! They had so many books that was almost impossible to walk in! and I got 3 books that I will be taking about soon!

Thank you for reading my quirkness and for wanting to know about our kingdom a bit more! Stay tuned for more about our adventures, tips, tales, and stories!

Now you tell me, what do you think about second-hand books??
