And...I freely admit to being a book buying addict. I've done pretty well with the book buying this year. Some slipups. I got a new Kindle and that required buying some books to load onto it. :-) I will say that I have read more books this year than any year since I have kept track. That's a good thing. My blog has been on permanent hiatus since April, but I am thinking about starting back up again. My life has been wild this last couple of years and things are still chaotic, but I miss blogging. Maybe in a few weeks or so. Anyway, I just wanted to thank you. .-= Kay's last blog: <a href="http://myrandomactsofreading.blogspot.com/2009/04/finished-bloglove-ya-all.html" rel="nofollow">A finished blog....Love ya all!</a> =-.

So often, I come across a review & I just add the title to my TBR list without doing much more digging to see if I'd actually like it. Hmm, maybe a topic for another day...

I understand your point about losing your excitement or booklust, though. As you read on my blog, I have books on my Goodreads list that I added over a year ago that I'm not even interested in any more. I guess it is the equivalent of your parents making you wait to date that boy: if you really love him, you'll still love him six months from now :-). .-= Dani in NC's last blog: <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/AverageGirlReads/~3/cHa8lZOgzxE/spice-of-life-challenge.html" rel="nofollow">The Spice of Life Challenge</a> =-.

I buy very few books anymore, most of mine are from paperbackswap or the library. I'm making an effort to de-clutter a bit and books are one of the major problems. I did buy Patricia Briggs newest and I buy craft books, maybe 1 every month or two, but that's it. It's nice to have cut that out. .-= Lisa's last blog: <a href="http://bookslistslife.blogspot.com/2009/09/brilliant-idea.html" rel="nofollow">Brilliant idea!</a> =-. Great topic!

I had this idea that I would try to hold off starting a series until all the books were out, but then. Hunger Games. Graceling. Foiled! Alexa, you are too kind! *blush*

I used to get a ton of books that way before we ran out of bookshelf space. Now I don't let myself go to even those, mainly because we now live in a 1000 sq ft house with no more room for supplemental bookshelves. ;-) I'm glad you found our list of tips & that they were helpful to you!
