it's not exactly a vow of celibacy, but a vow nonetheless
So, I've vowed not to buy any more books until I write one.
That certainly doesn't mean I can't read books -- an easy task considering how many books I've bought and haven't read yet.
But it does mean that I spent a wistful ten minutes sitting on a footstool in a bookstore in Williamsburg perusing an Italo Calvino novel I'd really like to have.

Why do you feel compelled to *own* these books?
Yeah! The public library is your friend! You're paying for it anyway, might as well take out as many books as possible.
