@franksting @bookstodon At least some of them are library books, so at some point you'll have to return them, right? My is out of control.

Also a day for starting a new book, which has been on my pile for quite some time, and finally risen to the top at an apposite moment for several reasons. @bookstodon 📖

As it happens, the next book on my pile is by Benjamin Zephaniah, but I'm taking ages on my current one, so who knows when I'll read it. @bookstodon 📖

Yeah, when something catches my interest I can get a tad obsessed... I blame World of Books offering titles at little more than a couple of quid each, free postage and 4 for the price of 3 offers!! How can an addict resist!??! 🤪
Thinking about doing a Black Museum inspired creative project/s but still mulling over ideas ...

I genuinely sometimes worry I have too many books but I have just read that Edward Gorey amassed a collection of about 25000 books and still professed that "There's no such thing as too many books" so I have a way to go 📚☺️📚

I keep looking at my tottering, towering To Be Read Piles and wondering whether I will live long enough to actually get through them ... and then I spot more bargains online or in a charity shop and build them higher.

"I once read that buying books represents the illusion of buying the time needed to read them. That sounds about right."
