I have 287 unread books on Calibre (and that's not accounting for omnibuses technically being more than one book).
I'm banning myself from buying any more ebooks until Hallowe'en! |

Actually, after making this post, I decided to see if there was a way with Calibre templates to keep track of chapters read.

Another gift card splurge has seen me buy 22 books in the last 6 weeks, taking me to 55 bought for the year versus 152 read. Time to get that gap back over 100

I did good and bad this month. Up until the James Bond special, I accumulated far fewer books/audiobooks than usual. Still more than I'm reading, but very close to breaking even. Huge discounts are my problem, but I'm doing much better restricting it currently to authors I already know and read. This month only 2 books were authors I didn't know (yeah, most of you know China Mieville, but Kraken is my first).

Well, as referenced in another thread, I just recently bought 450 books (already published) and EVERYTHING in the future, for the duration of my life - which could end before I finish this post (thank you to the member of my family who might have pushed the 'Submit' button); or it could end at some other moment. All this from one publisher.
Plus, the 2 or so dozen titles purchased from Amazon, and the 3 or 4 titles from Kobo. And one that was kindly given to me. So, I have a lot of ebooks to read before I die which, as I said, could end at |

About a month ago, I was in the hospital for a few days (thankfully, a suspected major issue turned out to be a minor transient one). At one point I clearly remember thinking "but I just bought a new cozy mystery and haven't even gotten it loaded onto my Kobo yet!"
