Here's my monthly/semiannual wrap-up.

I bought one book in June and it was the trifecta: wishlist, on sale, purchased with credit. That brings my semiannual total to 13 books for $14.25 (I don't count credit as part of purchase price). So I've averaged only half a book a week, which seems quite good to me. Also encouraging is that I can identify only one real mistake so far this year, where the sale price created the want for a book of which I'd never heard.

This compares to 2016, where year-to-date I had spent $102 on 33 books, and I thought I was doing pretty well at that! My tbr is down a net 13 books on the year, which isn't great but this is the first year where the trend is in the right direction.
