Don’t be silly. My name isn’t Claire.
My name isn’t silly either.
Well good, I told you NOT to be silly!
Getting an eBook reader has made me so much worse for this lol. I ended up trawling through a bunch of public domain book sites so now I’m permanently carrying around a ~700 book unread backlog.
Damn, you are not reading books at a rate never before possible.
Pair that with my Library’s Libby and I am completely overwhelmed.
Oh yeah I wasn’t even thinking about that too!
It really doesn’t help that over the last few years I’ve been getting all sorts of ebooks on sale thinking I’ll get to them eventually, they’re on sale so it’s not so bad, it’s fine… hundreds of books later.
Yeah I’ve been doing that too! Stupid Kobo store lol
I don’t owe you anything, books.
Next time try being more interesting.
Sadly they are really interesting, but I read too much social media and pulp fiction.

One of my favorite stories to embarass my wife is about how I lent her a book after our second date. Dirk Gently, after I saw Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy on her shelf.
A decade later she still hasn’t gotten more than two chapters into it. At this point she says she can’t break her streak. Says that wanting my book back has kept me around this long and she’s not about to ruin a good thing.
We’ll gloss over all the other books I’ve bought her that I end up reading first.
Oh man, she’s missing out - Dirk Gently is great!
Nah if i start a book series i actually enojy it becomes a primal need for me and i consume it like an out of control house fire until theres no material left to burn and all i can do is sit there hollow and wanting until the next fire starts.
no bc if I haven’t finished it ; that means its not good.
The Once & The Future King has been sitting there taunting me for a few years now.
I just finished a couple of books I got within a “few” years ago… I bought them when they first came out. Checked the copyright: 2014 on both… New Year’s resolution was no new books until the old ones are read.
