Lil Red Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 [quote name='Innocent' timestamp='1299657086' post='2219465']Therefore, I would respectfully urge you to reconsider your self-imposed book-ban.[/quote] thanks for the links, those were great to read but still, i need to at least start reading the books I have - many i have had for years and not read. (i will admit though that after reading Brother Adam's thread on Pope Benedict's new book, that i went and got both of them from amazon, just to make sure that i was able to get hardcover copies at a reasonable price.)

Lisa Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 This definitely happens to all of us! Best of luck with your 90 books!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcePrincessKRS Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I think if you can at least make some headway and read parts of each book that counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chestertonian Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I have the same problem. I probably have over a hundred books I've yet to read. The flippin used book/church yard sales are the culprit. Who can turn down hardbacks for a quarter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrestia Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I had that problem until Ike took my books (though my number was probably in the dozens). Now I have a rule: unread books cannot take up more than one half of one shelf. Any book that I am unlikely to re-read or has no reference value must be given away.
