Do you buy rent or borrow? Or do you have a subscription of some kind? Do you read physical books or do you read ebooks?

I read everything via the library first, unless it’s an author that I am absolutely positive that I will enjoy everything they write. I’ll borrow ebooks or physical books, depending on which will be available faster. Then, if I absolutely love the book and I’m sure I will read it again, I’ll buy a physical copy for my shelf.
