I debated with myself whether or not to share this photo as I am sure I am going to appear more than a little bookishly obsessed. I will admit it. I am addicted to books. I've already mentioned how little self-control I've had this year in terms of reading. I think this stems in part from my book buying ban, which in turn has meant more library book borrowing. Add that to a general wish to read everything I set my eyes on and, well, here we are.
I've not actually started all these books (above photo are the books in the reading queue), and I am not likely to finish them all by the end of the year, but I'm going to do my best to try and read/finish as many of them as I can before the year comes to a close. A few are books for readalongs, several are library books that I've requested through interlibrary loan (I always feel more pressure to finish those books that came from libraries outside of my state), one is an 'obligation' read, but mostly they are just books that I've picked up along the way because they sounded so good and I couldn't wait to read them. A few will definitely be carried over to next year, a few more might end up back on my shelves and a number of these are actually partially or mostly read and I hope to finish them soon. Perhaps I'll share another photo at the end of the year or beginning of the next and see how badly well I've done.
So, I guess this is my naughty bookish secret. What's yours?
