She also has a kid and has been going with the kid to the library since he was born to check out a bunch of books every week. He’s in grade school now… I want to say he’s 10?
$6996.99 per year is $134.56 per week. If you get 5 books per week, that’s $26.91 per book. Given the picture includes a single book costing $19.95, that feels very reasonable. Maybe it’s 6 books a week, maybe some books are more expensive.
Especially children’s books in terms of a per-page ratio. You check out 10 children’s books, because your kid will get through them all in a few days, that could be $200 worth of books.

That’s a very consistent habit though.
I go to the library every week with my kids. We usually have 20-30 books checked out at a time. 5 books per week is nothing for a whole family.
They literally go every week and she and her husband and her kid all use it, so it would add up.
Yeah that’s definitely where that amount is coming from if it’s been well over a decade. Books are actually really fricken expensive!

With children’s books most of the page count will be in illustrations. You’ll go through them very quickly.
