Indeed! That's why I have such a terrible time parting with any of my books, and will hoard them until the house overflows and someone sends me onto True Life: I am a Packrat. A little while ago I upgraded to the new editions of the Black Jewels Trilogy, with its incredible cover art. I gave my old, worn, second-hand-when-I-got-them copies to my friend Miranda, and she gave me money with which to buy the new copies. I thought I would love having a new, crisp, clean copy of each one.. But I kind of miss my old copies. They were familiar, I'd re-read them numerous times, they were dear to me, and they were how I first met Jaenelle & co. Thank you, dahling!

When a book touches your very soul, your first copy of it becomes like an old friend. Love "Book Bitching" btw! Can't wait to see more! I absolutely understand!
