The Year of Reading Dangerously

(Cross-posted from the book blog - whatever)



Enough already! Despite ploughing through about 100 books a year for the last 3 years, my "to read" shelf is now actually shelves and 2 deep at that. My pledge for 2009 is that I will borrow nothing from the library, nor buy any new books, but confine myself solely to items from this collection.

I allow myself a few exceptions:

1) Gifts gratefully received and added to the collections
2) I can continue any series I have already begun, e.g The Chronicles of Barchester
3) I can cheat if something urgent comes up
4) I can cheat if I'm bored
