Do any of you just buy books to add them to your library?
Knowing you may not get to them for a while?
What do you do, do you only add it to your library if you read it?
Do you limit yourself when you see books and say you already have a waitlist at home?
Edit: typo
I try to digitally read or listen to an audiobook before adding and physical book to my collection. That way if people ask about any books I have I can give actual descriptions of its contents. The only exception is signed books by authors im fond of. I’ll preorder signed copies of books, but usually try to read or listen to them digitally between preorder and arrival.
Awesome system!
One more suggestion:
If you have a bunch of unread books, section them off into a corner of your book shelf and label it unread. Move them over into your wider collection when you read a book from that section. I did this a while back when my wife added her books to my collection. She is an English major and had a ton of poetry. I hadn’t read a single line of poetry in my life. Don’t let any subject deter you from reading it though. Even bad books have nuggets of wisdom.
Great, thank you!
