It takes months to build up a bit of a lead, then a couple of days of new sales to lose it all.
About a week ago I was six books ahead of my TBR. Then I bought a book I've been needing to buy for a challenge for a while, and have amazingly held off until I was ready to read it (although I then changed my mind at the last second, and haven't actually started it yet.) Then I picked up a couple of used paperbacks. Then the new Monthly deals came in and I bought a book from my wishlist. Then I restarted my Prime subscription and borrowed a book from the lending library. Then the new Summer Sale came in and I bought three more books from my wishlists. And that's actually eight, so I guess I must have finished a couple of books in the meantime, since I'm back to evens.
