Now I permit myself a monthly browse through Waterstones, Feedbooks, PG and a few selected publishers and purchase enough for the next few weeks. There's also my shameful habit of sneaking off to 2nd-hand bookshops and buying up old pbooks for conversion. The ultimate limiting factor is that damned day job - they won't let me read when I'm there, the spoilsports!
