Welcome, Paul! The water's fine. Glad to have you. It's a great feeling and unlike most things, there's really no temptation to backslide.

I remember deleting all those freebies from Amazon; it was a dreadful slog. I was lucky in that it was in my pre-Calibre days, so they never made it that far.

I'm not much of a series-reader, but that's my practice, also. The next book in a series gets bumped up once I've read the preceding book.

I don't have a formal TBR, because some things you just don't want to assign a specific number, but I do tag my unread books according to their appeal and I regret to say I'm now at five levels. I try to keep the top rank at close to 200 books and those are the ones on my readers.
