[quote=Anonymous]I’m an avid reader and my prior county’s library often had tons of books I wanted to read. I moved to Loudoun about 7 years ago and pretty much haven’t had any luck since. I tried reading ebooks because you can get them easier but I just didn’t enjoy reading them as much.

For my birthday this year I got about 10 books and have enjoyed reading physical books again. So I made a list of all the books I wanted to read and… the library didn’t have a single one of them. The best I could get was a copy that would be available in 10 weeks. These aren’t brand new books, but they are popular ones. Part of the problem is that I like reading series and obviously I need to get them in the order I want to read them, which makes it really hard with library books. When books do come up in the queue for me, I’m in the middle of a different series and can’t drop everything to read the library books then.

Anyone else run into this issue? I wouldn’t even mind buying books, but it seems like a waste because I only want to read it once and would just donate after. Why isn’t book rental a thing?[/quote]
