And now I have some hard choices to make. I've been trying to buy no more than one new book for every three books I read (or otherwise remove from my TBR pile).

So far I'm doing quite well - 78 off the list and only 22 bought. But to keep my ratio above 3:1 I'd need to read another 18 books before I can buy this bundle. And that's ignoring the books I'm due to get by subscriptions (Analog, Asimov's, F&SF).

Last year my resolve was swept away by a fabulous offer on Agatha Christie books (currently I've read 9 out of 80+!). I was hoping to manage in 2011 to get my TBR pile below 300....
