No, it smells kind of icky. O_o

I just leave them on the floor or table, or give some to my little sister. I have a box as well next to my bookshelf for the books I don't like too much. xP

Ugh, too many to list here!

Nah. Once a guy yanked my book out of my hand for no reason and I kicked him in the shin really hard THEN got my book. smile

No, sorry.

I guess Waterstone's, or I buy them on Amazon.

My books and money, of course. ^_^ A few items of clothing so I'm not naked obviously...

Oh, I'd kill them!!!! twisted

I like the new book smell.

Favorite books?
hard to choose, so many..

If people tick you off while you're reading would you beat them with that book in your hand?
Depends on the book, of course. I would probably choose something else to throw at them, yell to go away, lol, or stare daggers until they leave, those are usually when they bother me when Im reading like THE BEST part of a book, lol.

Manga anyone?
Yea, though none right now.

Favorite bookstore?
Borders & Amazon, cause amazon's online and borders's the nearest one to where I live.

In a house fire which do you save (assuming you could save them and still live): Your clothes, your money, that pretty painting on the wall, a phone, or your books?

Answer the questions people!

God yes, I love the smell of books.

I just make makeshift shelves until I ca get some or find a nice place to hide them away. I'm a neat freak.

Favorite books? That's an unfair question dammit! It would take forever to list them all but for short I like Abarat, The thief of always, Harry Potter,Artemis Fowl, etc.

No I don't risk damaging my book, a well aimed glare (or kick if needed) fixes the problem just as good.

Hell yes, I read manga, I don't even acually like anime.

Powells, Powells, Powells, God that bookstore is holy. I need to go to Portland again just to be in that amazing place again.

Um, my writing book I geuss so that would probably count as a book, yes?

Yeah, I never throw away books, I sell them to used bookstores so that they can contiue to bring joy to other people NEVER waste a book, dog earing is the devil.

I love that new book smell. Heck, I love the smell of old books, too.

If I have no more room then I usually keep them strewn about my floor or other furniture. It's not a very good habit.

Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden, and Coraline by Neil Gaiman.

Of course not. Why punish the innocent book?

My local used book store.

My phone so I can call the fire department. Sure, I love my books, but I'm not crazy!

Most old books smell good, some new ones too, but then there's some that smell disgusting.

What do you do when you have too many books to keep them in your bookshelf or if you just don't have a book shelf?
keep them in a pile somewhere. or I go through them and see if there's any books that I don't really like/was good but I wouldn't re-read, and give them away or sell them.


Favorite books?
Ugh list is to long. The vampire diaries would probably be my fave series

If people tick you off while you're reading would you beat them with that book in your hand?
nah, a kick, verbal abuse, or just ignore them.

Manga anyone?
No sorry, not really into it

Favorite bookstore?
www.bookdepository.co.uk, because I can get the books I want from the comfort of my house. And the closet bookstore is like almost 1 hour away from me

In a house fire which do you save (assuming you could save them and still live): Your clothes, your money, that pretty painting on the wall, a phone, or your books?
Grab a bag or pillow case and stuff whatever I can get

If someone threw away your books would you be furious with them?
God give mercy to anyone that wants to try.
