Yep. And how long did it take me to come to this realization? So even in a “bad” month as far as purchases go, the “need to read” discipline is having a good effect. It also helped me trim my wishlist; there can be a critical difference between “I’d like to read this” and “I want to read this.” With some books, “would like” was probably not going to transition to “want” anytime in the near future, if ever.
