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.

Ummm... I think the response was to my message not your message. While I don't manage Spencer Reed's reading speed, I do inhabit the speedy end of the bell curve. War and Peace would take me about 12 hours of reading time not counting any induced naps compared to Spencer Reed's projected 30 minutes at 20,000WPM.
