There has been so little progress in these stacks over the past few months. I‘ve decided not to enter any giveaways for the foreseeable future. Since I failed my #bookbuyingban, I‘m reinstating that. Additionally, if I do acquire any books, I‘m going to try making sure they are of the Kindle variety!

#goals

Cinfhen #admirable 💕🙌🏻 7y

Traci1 Good luck. I know I need to ban myself from buying any more, but I am severely lacking in self control. 7y

DivineDiana It is sooooo hard! 🙁 7y

hilded I keep saying the same thing, still I'm failing miserably every month! Too many temptations 😔🤓 7y

emilyhaldi You have some good ones on that shelf!! 7y

laurieluna I've put restrictions on what I buy. So not an all out ban but lowering the number coming in each month. My tbr has turned into a monster in the past year so I'm just focusing on completing my Pratchett collection and building my Persephone collection each month until I can get it under control! Good luck in your endevours, it is hard 😬 xx 7y

Eyelit Same!!! 7y

Ok. This place is ginormous (The Book Loft). And I‘m pretty sure I‘m lost and will die of starvation. I‘m just going to sit here and wait for @LeshaMac to find me.

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Beautiful 💗 7y

Bookish resolutions: like several others I plan to get into the stacks in my house this year, I‘m also moving house to Germany for three years so I hope to read at least one book in German.

ACCURATE. 😎 📚

What type of reader are you?

Jess7 Tagging myself bc I want to do this later. @Jess7 (edited) 8y

diovival @Jess7 I wish there was a way to bookmark posts 🤔 8y

Jess7 Just took the test. I‘m "Fan Girl/Fan Guy": it says: "You got the Fan Girl/Fan Guy! You‘re the reader who may know what chapter your fave author is currently writing for his/her next novel…or what they might be having for dinner tonight after a quick glance at Instagram. Your weekend plan is focused around which book to tackle on your to-be-read pile…and maybe selecting your book club‘s next 10 (or 20) selections!" 8y

diovival @Jess7 Ha! Thanks for sharing. Was it on the nose? 8y

Jess7 So-so - I don't follow my favorite authors on social media so I have no idea what they're doing, but I do usually know the release dates of their upcoming books. I like to recommend books for book club and I would like to think I could plan my weekend around my TBR pile but I usually don't 😉 8y

batsy That's a great point about bookmarking posts! It would be so helpful if @Litsy had this feature. I got the Fan Girl, too 🤔 I love to look up lists of new releases just to add books to my TBR 😁 But I've no idea what fave authors are up to. 8y

Taking a cue from @MrBook here's some #libraryporn for your viewing pleasure. These are the below-street-level stacks in my library. This is where I go to escape when I'm having a particularly bad day. The light at the end of this tunnel is a window that looks out onto a river. There are approximately 70k books stored on this level.

Reecaspieces Wow! I would hide there too! Would be a great setting for a murder mystery!! 8y

LeahBergen Cool! 8y

PatriciaU There are lights in every aisle, they just aren't turned on in the pic, @ReadingEnvy. And @MrBook there was an episode of ghosthunters filmed here a couple years ago. I have experienced some weird stuff in these stacks! 8y

MrBook 🙌🏻 8y
