Rules (my new personal guild lines, however feel free to make up your own)
1. You can't buy any new books (unless you can't live without them, seriously you know the feeling I'm talking about)
2. You can't borrow any books (not even from the library) unless it's audiobooks you can listen to while you clean (I use my library's unbound option so there will be no late fees).
3. Every physical book you finish you will receive $1 and .50 cents for everything else or 1 point/ .5 a point.(e-books count to $1 too) [Middle grade books will count for 1 point but children's books and picture books are only 0.5 of a point] {you don't have to use money for a reward but the only way to buy a book is to save up for it like this, this will be the control in this experiment. I may switch this out for something else like a extra trip to the movies, fancy perfumes, etc.} And I'll add up all my points on the first of the month so the month will start over so fresh and so clean ;3
4. If you do borrow physical books then every book will cost you points (mine are at least 5 points, maybe 7 points. It would be more points but you are borrowing them and not buying so there is a little slack) The only out to this is if someone gifts you a book (without you asking) or lets you borrow a book (without you asking).
(There may be more rules added to this list in the future)
