Book addiction
Book addiction
Do any of you just buy books to add them to your library?
Knowing you may not get to them for a while?
What do you do, do you only add it to your library if you read it?
Do you limit yourself when you see books and say you already have a waitlist at home?

I have a strict set of rules, and I've managed to hold on to them for over 15 years now.
- I never buy books I do not intend to read in the near future.
- I have a "to-read pile" that never exceeds more than 10 to 12 books.
- No book gets to go on the shelf of my library unless I've read it.
2 0 ReplyGreat set of rules! I have failed, not to worry though I will start to apply rules to myself and my shelf.
1 0 Reply‘Whatever works’ is always the best rule. I kind of started doing it because I hated going to peoples houses, glancing at every single book in their bookshelves - as every sane person does - asking about a title and hearing ‘oh, I haven’t read that one’.
