finish all of the books that I'm in the middle of reading

I think I’m hindering myself when it comes to this goal by buying new books. Like Harry Potter and “Survivor” by Chuck Palahniuk.

Here’s some of what I need to finish:
“IV” by Chuck Klosterman
“Spook” by Mary Roach
“Chuck” by Chuck Yeagar
“Great Expectations” by Charles Dickens
“The Grapes of Wrath” by John steinbeck
“For Whom the Bell Tolls” by Ernest Hemingway
“The Crisis” by Winston Churchill
“The Scarlet Letter” by Nataniel Hawthorne

There are probably more, but I can’t remember any more.

I finished “Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell” last night, and I’m so glad that I finally did because it was a really exceptional book (all 846 pages of it). But, i’ve discovered that I have more than 8 books that I’m in the middle of – it’s more like 13. 12 now, I guess.

So, I last read some of this book back on October, but I picked it up the othder day, and it is far more interesting this time around. I have about 8 other books that I’m in the middle of, but I’m slowly but surely going to finish them all!
