The Book Pledge Challenge is going good so far, but the rest of it...Not all of my books are listed yet.

The Book Pledge Challenge is finished.

Congrats on finishing your pledge! Well done :)

Thank you, Siobhan. Never thought that it would go so quick.

Just added some titles. Not complete yet.

I'm eager to see what it'll look like when you're done putting it together.

I think I will have a heart - attack of actualy seeing a list of so many books that I own and that I haven't read not that many of them. I keep going to the library and occasionally buying the books that I really want, but my TBR - list keeps on growing.

No, I bought a pile of books today! I need to retire or clone myself to read them all!

I just got a new shelf and organized most of my unread books together. It's scary to see them in rows like that! I only have around 100, but that's a lot.

Good luck getting through some of yours! I hope the ones you picked up today are good ones. :)

I'm still counting them and I'm over 110 now. They keep on coming out of the moving boxes. We've moved almost 2 years ago to our new house, but still unpacking. That's the only moment that I muttered that I had to many books: when I was packing and unpacking :p
How do you organise your books? Do you have a system for it?
The ones from today were 6 books of Malazan of the Fallen, so that was a pretty good choice!

Yeah, moving with books is not the greatest. I don't have much of a system. It just depends on how I feel at any moment. Some of my unread books that are signed are on my main shelf, where I keep favorite books/authors. The rest are tossed on a separate shelf.

I keep adding instead of reading more. I'm sure that's not the way it works, haha!

Oh, I think that's exactly the way it works 😂
Not the way it should work, but the way it mostly work out in the end!
