Seema M. Fazil (brotherlyloveisbeautiful) | 35 comments Do u collect books? If so, what kind ( or what series )?
I collect the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew series. I have a variety of them in my bookshelf.
*I want to make sure I'm not the only one who collects books here*

Hannah (hansrox) | 140 comments I like to buy my books in general. Especially if it's a really good book that I've been waiting for. If there's a book I want to read but not interested in keepin it usually get it from the library. But I don't buy books I've read.
Oh! One series I've been trying to collect and have actually completed is the series of unfortunate events. I refuse to buy it full price so I go to used bookstores or thrift shops to find them for like $2 each. Way cheaper than buying it full price!

Kareena (iluvchocolate) | 155 comments I collect the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys Super Mysteries :D Also, I collect an old mystery series called Trixie Belden. I buy books I'm looking forward to in general... If I want to read it, but don't care about owning it, than yeah.. I go to the library. I do buy books that I've already read, but only if I loved it/them. I also just love going to used books stores to find books. It's just fun finding good deals :)

Yeah, so far I'm only collecting the SMs, but I do own a few Nancy Drew books :) I love forever love any of the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys books <3 Knowing me, I'm sure at some point in life I'll probably start collecting the ND and HB books too haha!

So far out of the SMs I only have 7. Lol really small amount, but I'm always keeping an eye out for them. They're really hard to find haha - I have A Crime for Christmas, The Paris Connection, New Year's Evil, Passport to Danger, Double Crossing, Dangerous Games and Danger Down Under.

I know there are are like 4 or 5 'new' ones. I've read them, but don't own them.

How many ND / HB books do you own?

So personally, do u like the HB or ND more? I like them both, but I like the HB a little more cos they've got more actions and I think its sweet that two brothers r working together. :)
What do u think?

Ooh... That hard because they're both so good! But... Yeah, I agree with you. I like HB a tad more for the same reasons and Joe is so funny :p
Wow.... It's actually been quite awhile since I've read a ND or HB book. I definitely want to go read one right now!

Do you ship Nancy and Frank? :p
I know Nancy is with Ned, buuuuut if they weren't....

Hmm... actually I prefer Nancy to be with Ned because when she's with Frank, I feel jealous of her. Have to admit it kind a makes me hate her when she's with Frank. Lol. :p

I went hardcore with the Warriors series, and used to own every single one. I also collected Little House books.
