Could you get through it in a reasonable time, or will it take a while, or is all hope lost?
I am definitely in the latter category.
For the last few years, I’ve done an annual Mt TBR (to be read) challenge on Goodreads. I start each year with good intentions of working my way through my extensive physical and electronic to-read piles. I finish each year having read around fifty books from that pile … but still having managed to add to the pile.
Each year, I tell myself I’m not going to buy more books, not even those 99 cent Kindle specials.
Each year, I admit I lied.
I currently have 100 books in my Mt TBR folder on my Kindle, 11 that I have bought this year and not yet read (and I am trying to read more as I buy them so I don’t add to Mt TBR), and 177 in my free books folder. And an unknown number (but over 1,000) unread books that aren’t even on this Kindle. And perhaps not even on the last Kindle. And there are the paperbacks …
