Or in my case, "It's tragic. She only had 50 books left in her TBR pile." Oh who am I kidding? Like I'm ever going to be able to whittle down my book collection that much....
Yeah, that's what I was thinking -- only 50 books??
I've made the executive decision to clear make some space on my TBR some time next week, probably the weekend. John and I are going down to the nearby storage rental place (climate controlled, thankyouverymuch), and I'm going to get a small one for my TBR.
Yes, it is. I'm a book addict. Embarassing, eh? Of course, I live in an apartment, so space is very limited, even though, by apartment standards, it's a good-sized place.
Fifty books in my TBR would be an awesome accomplishment. So not going to happen. Just when I think I've got a grip on things, reality steps in and slaps me. And I must, must, must stop going to Goodwill and the Thrift Store. Is there medication for this problem? Is it called Prozac?
I would have a panic attack if I only had 50 books in my TBR pile and would immediately liquidate all my assets and BUY!!!
Amy - can you be away from your books? When we moved I had to box mine all up and they were stored in a walk in closet for about 6 months. I get very antsy if I can't walk up to my books and look through them whenever I want.
LOL Cindy, that will be the first question I ask -- can I get into my place any time I want. I'm also thinking of other options with bookshelves and using wall space for mounted bookshelves on the walls and such.
I am so there - I'll never get through my TBR pile. I just start making a dent and I hit a bookstore and add another tower. *Sigh* Oh, well! I shall strive to carry on... :0)

Pray for me...
Um... amy? is that picture your actual, honest to goodness TBR pile?
ReplyDelete*is scared*
Yeah, having only fifty would be nice.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is. I'm a book addict. Embarassing, eh? Of course, I live in an apartment, so space is very limited, even though, by apartment standards, it's a good-sized place.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I'm horrible at housekeeping.

Sorry, Nikki, Prozac won't help ;)

Cuffs...get to it...whats with this 50 book shite?
ReplyDeleteLOL Cindy, that will be the first question I ask -- can I get into my place any time I want. I'm also thinking of other options with bookshelves and using wall space for mounted bookshelves on the walls and such.
ReplyDeleteIf I ever get to the point where my TBR pile is under 50 books, I will be in a dark depression. My pile keeps me going.
ReplyDeleteAnd to think that until this year (I blame lisabea) my TBR pile was under twenty books...
ReplyDeleteOh - that is SO us isn't it!!! Thanks for the belly laugh!
ReplyDeleteWendy,

I agree - worst nightmare ever. LOL
ReplyDeleteWasn't there a Twilight Zone where this guy survived the apocalypse next to the NY library but his glasses broke? That's scary stuff right there. LOL
