I rarely keep track of how many books I purchase in a month but for November I decided to keep track of my purchases. I purchased 32 books of which most were on sale or part of a series I already own. I read 43 books which includes the last 9 books in the Honor Harrington series (I started a re-read of all the Honorverse books after reading Uncompromising Honor from the October Baen bundle). I have the Baen bundle for December coming up soon which will add 3 new books plus a couple of books which I have already read in dead tree form.
If you're finding time to read 43 books a month, I can understand why you're not building up a TBR list. Even on my 'worst' year, I only bought 394 books. (which is about 33 a month.)

Clearly you need to haunt the offers threads, and perhaps you *should* be getting freebies from new authors to try.
