The real value is in the variety and freedom to explore, which might make it valuable even for people only reading two or three books a month. |
I always assumed reading other than erotica. Never occurred to me that erotica was a big draw until joykins brought it up.
My original argument was that, for those of us lucky to have good ones, libraries offered a pretty competitive product. Costs tax dollars but not extra tax dollars. Very wide selection where I live, and I understand others are not so fortunate. But also much better selections in some other libraries.
I could possibly read 100 books a month from my library and not worry about running out of titles I found interesting. An I would have to try really really hard to read more than twenty.
