Location: UK		Dune is one I'd like to reread, but I have never owned a copy. I borrowed it from a friend when I originally read it, mumble-mumble years ago, and have never picked up a copy of my own.

The same is also true, it seems, of Gateway, another book I remember very fondly but don't appear to own.

And where's my copy of Hitchhiker's gone? That one was definitely mine. Either I lent it out and never got it back, or my brother claimed it.

I might have to sit this one out for now. If there's one principle I am trying to observe, it's reading books I already own, instead of perpetually buying new ones. (In fact, my challenge for this year was merely to gain less than twice the number of books I read - just to slow down the rate of growth - and I'm not even achieving that, but that is only counting unread books, and a reread wouldn't count against me.)
