I only buy books from our Friends of the Library book sale. When I'm finished with them, I donate them back, unless I really want to keep them (not usually).

I return them to the library where I borrowed them. I don’t buy books.

I trade them in at McKay's used books for store credit and get myself some more books. You can get cash, too, though.

LFLs in my DC neighborhood are all nerd books all the time, lol. Lots of history, politics, international relations theory. So DC!

you can put those in little free libraries - they mostly take a whole range of books. I'd try not to burden one with too many though. I used to drive around town putting 2-3 in each one, so as not to over-burden. They were mainly fiction though.

+1 Our little free libraries are all for adults in my neighborhood! Mostly chick lit and Oprah picks from what I can tell, checked out by all the dog walkers.

If you are reading books you don’t want to own, stop buying and start borrowing. I only own books I love, buying them after I’ve read them a first time. Everything i read is borrowed from the library (in person or Libby).

These are adult history and non fiction books so I don't think I can put them in a little free library. Any other ideas on what to do with them? So far I have just been keeping them.
