Depending on what day it is I am either a Vampire, a Zombie or a Cyborg. That means I have no plans on dying until I read every book on my TBR list and drink this planet dry of tea.

Hopefully I'll be dead before I'm 50, so at most I'll read 750 books before I die

I usually read everything as possible; BUT Mobilread is putting a clinker onto my normal reading habits as in the dab blasted "Deals, Bargains, Free" forum have put many holes in my pocket & accelerated the growth rate of my library.
I mark 0read0, set a rating, and turn the color to purple. I have a huge library, but a lot of books read. If I could plow through a genre for a few months, instead of switching every night, I might make more progress.

While I buy books daily, I actually read more library books than books I own. Therefore, I use Goodreads, primarily, in conjunction with my phone's tasks app to manage and prioritize my TBR list.

I'm a fast and voracious reader, but the term that comes to mind when I compare my book completion rate to the growth rate of my TBR list is: "Sisyphean".
