Do you buy physical books you have already read?

For example; I have read a book named “The Words We Keep” digitally. I loved it, it really resonated with me because it’s about something - I personally have and struggle with as well.

Thinking to buy the book physically but feel like, I can’t justify it due to the fact that I’ve already read it.

I don’t really re-read books either.

    Yes sometime, I do read some novel/light novel online.

    But when there are official release (translated by local publisher and legit), I will buy, for 2 thing:

    • For collection purpose. for enjoyment, because book will come with stuff, art, diagram, …
    • Support the practice of bringing that type of book local. If no one buy, then publisher will stop doing so
