How many unread books do you own?

[kaitlynnkidd]

About 15. I lost a lot of my books in a flood not too long ago, and needed to buy more because hey, who doesn't like having a few books lying around just waiting for a rainy day?

Not many because I post them all on that book swapping website and so I trade all of my old books for new ones that I want to read for free! Its great!

Based on my shelf next to me I have 39% unread of the books I own. The number may be higher or lower depending on what is in my storage unit. I do know that I have roughly 30 tubs of books there. I can't wait until I have the space in my home to bring them in. I miss having large bookcases filled with books around me.

Oh gosh. I feel sad to say I have lots of unread books. It's like half of my book collection. I've read something over facebook (wordporn?) it's called "Tsundoku" which means having books and not reading them.

None. I am a single mom that goes to nursing school full time. I go shopping for my books during the summer yard sales where they sell for .50-1.00. I generally end up reading a book or two a night until my pile is gone, then I go back to my studies. I love diving into a good book, it completely relaxes me and brings me back to my center.

Too numerous to mention! ( I'm better off NOT counting )

I would estimate about 2,000. That's the whole idea of owning a home library - to always have a source of unread books near at hand.

I had a whole room filled with antique, new, century old books.. .nut then I moved to US so I cant read even one of them!

I would say approx 20 but many of my unread books are instructional books as well such as self-help or home-repair type books.

[lorenicole]

Actually I don't think that I have any that I haven't read. I usually buy a book and read it (or two) before I get any more.

[KristineNicole]

I own about 5 or so unread books. I try not to buy or rent any more books until I finish the ones I'm reading, but sometimes that doesn't work out, hehe.

Too many to count....

[Ava Mara]

At the moment I think I only have about 10 unread ones, unfortunately I don't have much of an income so I can't afford to many books

[jbumbrown]

I have 5 books that I haven't read yet that I bought not too long ago. I usually make sure that I have read all of those books before I buy any more.
