The one natural law of being a book-lover is that you never, ever address just how big your TBR pile is. That, as far as we are all concerned, is a private matter between our bank accounts and God.
Well, no longer! As part of my Read What You Own challenge, I've been picking up books I ordinarily wouldn't have got to for years, if ever. I therefore decided to catalogue the books I own, across all formats.
Let the judgement commence!
.jpg)
Notes:
- A great number of these books were either free or low cost. My usual price range is 99p to £5. This list has also built up over ten or so years, so I'm not spending thousands annually on books!
- Around sixty to eighty of these titles came from Storybundles, so were not bought individually but as a group, often with the intention of only reading a handful of the titles.
- I have not included author or series names, because that would be an overwhelming amount of additional work.
- This doesn't include a couple of bags of old charity-shop books I keep at my mother's house, because that would involve a two hour drive.
