I have the same bad habit, @Paula. Buying more and more books with my reading speed not increasing.

I’m a dog earring binding breaking monster…. ? I mostly buy used books because I love the way they are broken in! I have pretty shelves of mismatched books.

I’m really just going to return this book to the library as I have a huge TBR pile at home… And I return with two more books from the library.

Buying too many books, then I think I have nothing to read ~ “look around you Paula there’s more books than people in your house!”???

When I was working, I spent most of my wages on books (after I paid the bills, did the food shopping, etc), I used to love going into Glasgow & hitting the bookstores, I was worse when I worked in Glasgow, I would go out to get my lunch & come back with a book☺️☺️

Is buying ALL the books a bad book habit? Is it a bad book habit to have them languish on my shelves while I read through books that I bought years ago?

I can be pretty rude (at times), I complained at my sister because she kept talking while I was reading the last two pages of a book☺️

No matter how I try, I usually wind up with more library books than I can realistically read before they’re due.
