Michelle Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 We did a poll on this a while ago, and there was a wide range of answers. It'll be interesting to find out if we still do. (I'll go count mine later.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blossom Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 For the first time in I don't know how long, I have NO books to read. Can't afford to buy any for a while, and not able to get to the library - think I'm going to have to do some re-reading! Kerri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polka Dot Rock Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 *Ahem* Just realised, it's actually 30 as I have two on order... Oops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renniemist Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have more than 50 on my TBR pile, and I have told myself that I will not buy another book until I have read at least 10 of them. (The one that came from Amazon today does not count.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilywhite Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 78 I suppose I should spend more time reading them instead of buying them......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcow Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Don't forget half of my TBR list includes yours babes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icecream Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I (The one that came from Amazon today does not count.) And how does that work exactly? I have 12 on my shelf to read, and 18 that I want to get hold of, so that makes 20 altogether, and I am sure their is a couple more on my list (on my computer) tha I haven't put on here yet. My list keeps growing (thanks to this forum). I certainly want to read the second of Raven Hart's vampire books if I ever get the chance..

Kell Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I was going to guess at 70, but then I counted them up. I have 62 books and 8 audio books, so I was spot on! I also have two more books on the way at the moment, so it'll be 72 when they arrive... I think it's about the same amount as it was the last time - it seems I get more at the same rate as I get through them, and seeing as how I'm downloading audio books for free, there are always more audio books to get! Ooh, and Dale owes me a book for Easter, so that'll be 73... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angerball Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Loads. Too many to count really. My problem is that even though I have a lot of books on my bookshelf, I still borrow or buy others to read. I can't help it though; if I see something that looks interesting, I have to have it, even though I may not get around to reading it for a very long time. I mean I have books that I bought about 7 or 8 years ago, and have yet to read them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyB Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Just popped on to librarything and I've 11 on my TBR list and 35 on my wishlist. (If anyone wants to see what they are click on link in my signature and click tags and then TBR and then wishlist.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angel Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have about 58 - so now that it's below 60, I'm beginning to panic that I might run out!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louiseog Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have about 58 - so now that it's below 60, I'm beginning to panic that I might run out!!! I know the feeling! My resolution was to get tbr down, it was 88 and its now 66 but I could run out!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyB Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Just added 3 more to my wish list - all chunky classics inspired by the gothic novels mentioned in Northanger Abbey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I have a list of my books in a spreadsheet and just counted up the unread ones...107 And what's worse is that the spreadsheet is nowhere near complete. I think I could easily add an extra 30-40 unread books! Oh dear. I had no idea it'd gotten that bad. But that's still not going to stop me from going to a huge book fair next week, where I expect to buy another 20 or more. Hey, the books will be dirt cheap and the money goes to a good cause, OK?

Pilgrim Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 33 on the list at e-books but some where I've lost interest so 15 and I should go clean up - or maybe not - it's hard to delete a book sitting there not doing any harm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nici Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I have 38 books on my bookshelf waiting to be read. Make that 40, I got 2 books today although as one is Stephen King - The Stand can I class that as about 4 books as it's sooooo huge!!!?
