I take exception to some of Adam Trimingham's comments about Hove Library (The Argus, October 23).

As a voracious reader, I get through six books each week, none of which is "dog-eared".

Most of these are new books and the library gives me an opportunity to discover new authors.

Sure, you can buy classics for £1 each but personally I found them dull when I was younger and still do.

If I had to buy all the books I read, I would be bankrupt by now.
