Today I have to describe how I shop for books. Now this is going to be a very short post because I can tell you now...I never get to buy books. If I do get money I usually get the choice to get one book which is heart breaking because I usually have to choose out of like 10. I usually shop at Dymocks and I recently found out that Kinokuniya is waaay more cheaper ($3-$5, doesn't seem like much but it all adds up) so I know I'll be buying my books there from now on. I usually borrow books as I have no room on my bookshelf but I am happy because I'll probably be getting a new one soon!!!

But the way I shop for books usually follow this devastating pattern:

1. I find a new book on Goodreads that I am dying to read *cough* The 5th Wave
2. I march up to my local book store with a determined expression (QBD or Dymocks) 
3. I then search for this (one) book and find like 50 others that I want
4. Get all excited that this book store has all these books
5. I then fish around in my pocket to find that there is nothing but an old hair band or an old mint.
6. Then I start weeping on the book store floor surrounded in a pile of books earning me odd stares from innocent bystanders because I'm broke.  
7. I start reading a book trying to get as much read in a limited amount of time
8. 1 hour later the shop owner gives me the stare that says "Are you going to buy that" 
9. Then I have to leave...
