Yes, it certainly does cut into your eBook purchases, doesn't it? Hard to justify buying an eBook when you already have hundreds in your TBR and there's still food to be bought.

I started out this year with a rather reckless abandon on the buying front, fueled in part by three favourite series that all had new books in the first week and a half of January. And then I started looking for books for the New Leaf Book Club to nominate, and that took me down some places I hadn't been and just had to buy books that I discovered. And I had done so well last year.
