I have done that!. Sometimes an older book will be re-issued with a different cover & artwork & I've been fooled into thinking it was a different book with maybe a similar title to something I read a while back!. Sneaky of them!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I bought a cookbook at a library sale, took it home and found notes in the margin in my handwriting!. I had donated the book to the library and then, a few months later, bought the same book!. Now, whenever I donate a book, I make a small mark on page 35 - and I try to look at page 35 before I buy the book!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes!. I have like three copies of Cider House Rules!. And I don't even know what else but it's because I have way to many books!. I buy more books than I can ever possibly read, thinking that I'll get to them, but then a different book will catch my attention and I'll start going with that!. I'm a bookaholic!. Barnes and Noble would probably go bankrupt if I were to stop!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not as much lately, but have done it more than once!. Read the jacket, thought it would be a good read, only to find out I've already read it, or already have a copy among the stacks at home!Www@QuestionHome@Com
