Ain't it the truth!

And so far this year, I've read nine books, but I've only bought seven! Add in that two of the books bought didn't go on my TBR, and that I've discarded one book from my TBR, and I'm at ten removed and only five added, a ratio of 2:1!
Fantastic. Well begun is half done, as they say.

As for the first bit I quoted, it occurs to me that it's an argument for not putting books on your wishlist as it just keeps them active. Not saying that you shouldn't have a wishlist at all, but that one should think twice about adding a book and (a big one for me) purge it occasionally.
