read all the books I own but haven't read

77 to go.Could have been less but I caved and bought the twilight series for my birthday…

Reading a book from my stash and the book club book is ok, but reading extra stuff – I think I’ll cut that and just work on one from the stash a month. Anything else is a bonus. 81 to go!

I always want to get new books at the library, but I know I should just read the ones I already own. So I only have 2 left to read, Summer Days with Daughter by Eugene Platt, and War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells.
Im going to go read Summer Days now.
woo!

Success statement: After counting my 170+ books, and working out that around 40 weren’t read, I decided to stop buying more books until I’d read (or sold) the ones I hadn’t read. I’ve reduced my outstanding reading list to ten, and am now happily reading and buying a wonderful assortment of books.

I am actually shocked at how many books/graphic novels I have but haven’t read. More shocking I KEEP buying new ones as wells as going to the library often as well!
So this goal is pretty closely linked to my “Read for an hour every day” goal, cause completing one will lead to completing the other!

I have alot of books I haven’t read. When I decluttered my workroom (where my bookcases are) I sorted out the read from unread and counted 87 unread books. Since then I’ve read 4. 83 to go! OMG! Plus I belong to a book discussion group, and the others have read such interesting books which aren’t in my ‘to be read’ pile… To achieve this goal, each month I will:
-Read one book from my ‘to read’ pile,
-Read the discussion group book,
-Borrow a book from the library.
Three books a month is totally do-able for me. Any extra time I have each month I will devote to the ‘to read’ pile. Otherwise, according to my calculator, if I read one unread book a month it will take me 6 years and 9 months to achieve this goal!
OMG!

I keep telling myself that I have plenty of books.
But the books in the shops call out to me, they beg to be purchased… so, I still have a heap. I do love to read though…

that would be one of the goals, I guess I will never be able to accomplish…in my house i have like hundreds of all kinds of books.. I dont think im accomplishing this any time soon

and barely seems like any time to finish it. Everytime I get into a book I would stop mid way and continue another book. So many great books and always finding something else to do rather then read. Unless I get into a certain book I won’t stop until I finish it.

... but time is missing.
