What do you do with your books after you read them?
- Throw them away
- Keep them
- Give them away
We have a free library in our gym/community room here where I live and I donate my books to the library.

My mother works at the library, so I donate them to the library for use in the actual catalog or for them to sell at the book sale to raise money. Even if she didn't work there, I'd donate them somewhere. I never throw away something that's perfectly good.
And I keep reading the title as "What do you do with your boobs?" and then I think, "Are there multiple uses?" Then I remember that it says books. This cycle will happen every time I read the title.

I keep them if they are really good and I know I will reread them. If I do not keep them then I donate them or pass them on to my MIL or SIL.

I do everything with my boobs. We are inseparable.
I used to keep my books but sold them all before one of my moves in the last few years. Now I only have a few.

Sometimes I sell them, sometimes I donate them. When we were overseas I did this PaperBack Swap. It's a pretty neat thing.

IF I buy a book I will keep it or loan it to family/ friends, but because I read so fast I just check out most books that I read from the library.

I, for one, can think of multiple uses for my boobs. Among other things, they could even keep me alive in the desert, as they're filled with saline.
As for books, I love books. I tend to buy non-fiction as a general rule so I keep them for a long time. ONce they get outdated, I donate to the local goodwill or some other place.
Fiction, I check out at the library or listen to on my iPod after I download it from the library. I'm still waiting for a fiction book that's good enough to actually buy.

I keep books because I like to reread them. Plus I like to display them in my living room so people will think I'm smart  J/K Most of my books are on my kindle now so I can't donate them.

I give my books to my SIL. She reads what she wants then she donates them to the nursey home where she works.
