Glad to see I’m not the only one who is a little behind on my reading!

It makes me feel a bit better to know I am not the only one with an unmanageable TBR pile. Thanks!

Thanks for this! I saw this via BookMoot and had to share. (Posted the link on our Library’s FB page.)
I’m very glad that I’m not the only one who can’t keep up! And may we never run out of books in our TBR piles!

Well Greg…I do most of my catch-up reading in bed at night before I nod off, book open on my chest. I work from a large pile of dusty books on the floor next to my night table. I was recently so relieved to have made it halfway through one book I had been dying to get to for 2 years…only to find I suddenly remembered the whole story and realized I had already read the book!
So much for catching up at bedtime!….sooooz

I cannot even take a photo of my TBR piles, because they’re spread across all the rooms I frequent, but this made me feel better about the sheer quantity of what I want to read. I’m glad there are others like me.

All of those feel about right. I could do a stack of post-its about my height (and in fact there’s one here started). And I’ve read Scat–hooray! That one was in my stack for a while!

[...] Speaking of jumping … I wanted to give you an update on Jill Vanderwood’s Leap for Literacy. She did, indeed, jump from a perfectly good airplane on Saturday, 12 September 2009. As you may remember, Jill is raising awareness and funds for both children’s and adult literacy. We have added a small box to our right to help us reach our goal of $200 for our Use Your ABCs Program. The money will be used to ship books to readers in need. How many books? Check out this photo of our Book Closet at The Happy Accident! [...]

I am no longer ashamed of my TBR pile(s). It’s comforting to know there are others like me.

My niece described my TBR pile/bookshelves/heap perfectly as she exclaimed, “It’s a book EXPLOSION!” I am in good company it looks like!
