Books you have bought but haven't read yet

[obiebookworm]

I have a whole slew of books that I've purchased, but haven't gotten to read yet.

[ALRyder]

I'm in the boat with everyone else who seems to have too many to list. I think I may have a disorder of some sort. I have a major compulsion for buying books. Lol.

[AmberLupin]

I have many.... the most recent book that I bought was one of Ozzy Osbourne's. I have a major interest in memoirs, as it were, and a large portion are memoirs.

I know what you mean! I've bought about three books in the past week, and I'm in the middle of the final Harry Potter book, so I haven't gotten started on any of them! Not to mention the fact that I had plenty of books waiting to be read on my bookshelf already =)

I used to buy books from a lovely second hand book shop near my house. Visiting Tall Stories to buy books turned into a relaxed outing. First pop into the bookshop browse the shelves and the bargain table, lounge in their soft leather sofas to check out my choices and once I had about six or eight books I was satisfied with, I would chat a bit with the owner and her "book store cat", pay and be off to a cozy little coffee shop near by. Within the time before my next visit I would read all the books bought. Awesome! These days I own a Kindle and it's scary how easy it is to accumulate books. They don't take space up on my bookshelves anymore, but I must have about 30 on my kindle which I have downloaded and not read, being bargains at the time and must haves! One which comes to mind is "The Great Gatsby", which I needed for research for our themed company year end party .

I bought "The monk who sold his ferrari" and my friend borrowed it from me even before I could read it and lost it.

I bought Killing Time and the Alienist by Caleb Carr but have not read either one yet. I also have the I also have some books I picked up at Goodwill for $1 I haven't read yet: The House of Sand and Fog; The Devil Wears Prada; Eat, Pray, Love; My Sister's Keeper, and the Nanny Diaries. Not to mention a pretty chewed up copy of the Kite Runner that my puppy thought was used for teething instead of reading.

[pagenumber394]

My most recent buys are Silkworm, Paris, and The Lightning Thief.

I still have Prodigy, Splintered, Inkheart, Unhinged, and Witch's Daughter to read.

[Sim P]

I have to read Crossed, Shadows, The legend, Scarlet and Cress.

harry potter.. i found it very boring

[KasMorin]

I nab a lot of free Kindle books from Amazon. Sometimes I'll get 6+ in a day (other days it's only 1-2)

Either way, I have far too many to even list. I actually have so many that I've attempted to "purchase" books I already have in my set.

The Bone Season. I had read all the hype but for some reason I can't bring myself to crack it open!

I'm just discovering them now myself, I'm finding some better than others. Overall I like the series enough to keep trudging!

I love love love buying books, so naturally I have quite a few I haven't read yet because I can't keep up with my buying habits. I have A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, Eat Pray Love, the Divergent series, A Fault in Our Stars, Catch 22, and A Tale of Two Cities.
