Re:
I couldn't possibly read all the books I want to read fast enough to get them back to the library when they are due. I use the library when it is convenient and to save money but they don't have everything I want to read. When I read a series I want to read them in order all together and the library wouldn't have them all. So I have many many books I have yet to read on my shelves but it is slowly decreasing now that I have a Kindle. I get books from Book Gorilla often free or very cheap and I have over 400 waiting to be read.Scott wrote:I get most of the books from the library which helps me to avoid the piling up of books I haven't read. It encourages me to read them in the order I pick them out as well, since I will return them. When you buy a book, you can keep telling yourself you will read it some other time. With the library, you have a due date that helps encourage you to actually read it now.

I too have over 400 waiting in queue. Quite often I'll find a book that looks interesting but its book 2 in the series and then I'll have to hold onto it til I find number 1. Goal for 2015 read more buy less!
