So many good books!
ReplyDeleteI love your TBR posts! I'd like to do one as well, but the number of books I have waiting for me is daunting.
ReplyDeleteOh, it often feels overwhelming! Sometimes I've thought of making a calculation: the average number of books I read per month compared to the number of books I abandon compared to the number of books I add to my TBR. I'm sure it's an exponentially growing number, so if I don't get stricter about abandoning books that really aren't thrilling me, I will never get all to all the ones I want to read. But isn't that half the fun of it?
ReplyDeleteThen there's the number of books I keep on my shelf that I want to reread someday... not sure how to ever factor that in.
I do calculations like that once a year, in my year wrap up post. I suspect most of my readers don't care, but I really enjoy seeing the stats.
ReplyDeleteI count stats and the end of the year, too, but I've never included a TBR count.
ReplyDeleteSo many books!! It always makes me feel so happy to look at the books I haven't read yet -- I'll never, ever, ever run out. :D
