It really depends. The libraries here seem pretty barren and there's a lot of non-fiction that I'd like to read but they don't carry. Plenty of fiction, but non-fiction is terrible and outdated. If I'm looking for a specific book, I'll go to the internet before the bookstore. Otherwise I'll just go browse around the bookstore. I've read many books while sitting in a chair at the Barnes and Noble though.

yes. Mr. Green
Usually amazon.com or half.com truthfully, but I am trying to utilize the library more now that I live so close, so both.

I.love.books. I buy a lot for all of us, but we do check out our fair share (20 or so every 3 weeks) from the library. Reading is Fundamental, yo.

bookstore, most of the books I want to read, I do not want to wait for and are usually passed around anyway.

Amazon.com or bookstore.

I really should go to the library more often. I spend way too much on books.
