Today's feature and follow question is:
DO YOU OWN ANY DOUBLES OF YOUR BOOKS? WHAT LED TO GETTING THAT SECOND...OR THIRD...OR FOURTH COPY? -SUGGESTED BY: A Great Read 

Only one or two of my books have duplicates. If I really love a book I will often buy it in hardback but I tend to give away my old copy to friends or charities or second bookstores. At this moment in time I think I have one book on my shelf twice. I bout Magic Study from a second hand book shop but the spine was completely damaged and it didn't have the nicest cover. When I was in Edinburgh The Works were having a liquidation sales and I found a brand new copy of Magic Study with a much nicer cover for only a £1. Other books that I have had two at the one time is The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken. I had bought Never Fade and In the Afterlight in hardcover and I wanted to have all the books in the series matching so I gave my paperback copy to my cousin and got myself a hardcover to match the others. I am also planning on buying another copy of Red Rising as I ADORE that book and I bought the second one in hardcover, so again I want my books matching on my shelves.

Oh, I nearly forgot about my two Harry Potter collections. I have a really old and battered HP collection and also recently bought the new Jonny Duddle illustrated covers because they are pretty and I really needed a new less battered collection.

That's pretty much it.

Does anyone else buy duplicates just to have their books matching? If you have participated in this meme do feel free to leave a comment below and I will be sure to check it out.
