Duuuuude, nuh-uh. I totally was just writing a paper and decided 'I absolutely must go to the Off-Topic IC right now and start a thread entitled How many books do you buy a year?' That is legitimately creepy :leaving:
So anyway, if you people could include how many you buy a year, that would be awesome
For me.... I'm going to guesstimate:
Academic: 12 the only "academic" books that I don't read for pleasure are textbooks. Even if the other subjects are academic, I read them for pleasure, so I put them below.
Pleasure: 60-ish. This includes linguistics, psychology, sociology, and crime non-fiction books that I read for pleasure. Also includes classic literature and a whole lot of "regular" fiction too I used to read a couple of books a week, but alas I no longer have time for that much reading
As far as how many I buy a year is probably upwards of 55. What can I say, my library sells books for $1 and Goodwill for $.75!
