I have a huge stack of books I really need to get to, and making me wish I was young again. When I was younger, I could read a book in a day or three. Now days, I'm REALLY lucky to get through a book in a week. And some books (like Wicked) take me longer for whatever reason. Some of these I've owned for awhile, others are fairly new purchases or recent gifts.
And that's just the books I can immediately get my hands on and identify as unread. There's more that have been shelved just to avoid having this ever growing stack of books, or, worse, ever growing stacks of books all over the house! It also doesn't account for any that one of my children may have "borrowed" when I wasn't looking.
A lot more.
Really, when I say I need to stop buying books, I mean it. Of course, I never do stop. Just keep on buying and keep on trying to plow through and keep on getting distracted from the current reading by something new.
