Yeah I’ve just organized mine for ARCs and it’s 16 big at the moment with 12 between now and end of April. Better get cracking!

good ideas. I keep my TBR list over at goodreads. I think it is about 200 right now. I have about 20 actual books on my shelf and 8 on my kindle. I keep my list small by not adding all the books in a series. I list the first one and after I read it I will add the next. There are so many stories out there I want to read. The worst time is when I finish all the books I *have to read (like ARCs) and I can pick one from my list….I get overwhelmed and don’t know which to pick…

So my pretty TBR pile of 20-40 has expanded (but those original books have been read and dealt with) — low and behold a whole shelf. When and how did that happen? lol Oh yeah when people gave me lots of books. There’s some oldies in the new larger pile that I’ve never read that seem to be romance-land staples.

I’ve done the purge, spreadsheet, and purge. But I want to master reading at least 20 books a month—but I read so many business, marketing, along with other books. I stopped book blogging because of that. If someone has a tip of how they can get that done, please tell me.

#4 is what worked for me. I got rid of all TBR books unless it was nonfiction I thought I might want to keep after reading. So now I use the library for everything. I saved about $1000 a year doing that!

Too many books does feel like a chore! I agree!

I’ve found that having more than about 20 books in my TBR pile actually discourages me from reading my TBR books. It starts to feel like a chore that I have to do! So once I get this pile down to about 10, there will be balance in the force once more.

I’ve just bought steadily over the years, and then I joined PBS. Instead of books going out of the house, they’re coming in as well. *sigh* It’s a never ending cycle, but it has been a work in progress over several years.
