browsing bookshelves —bursting of books— in bookstores oddly relaxes me. If something piques my interest enough and I have some bucks I can spare, I buy it. For some time, I've been buying books that... I end up not reading; I put 'em in queue "to read" but another book would fascinate me at another point that I'd lose priority, not necessarily interest, on the previous ones.
They pile up. Unread.
Somewhere safe in my room.
I am a tsundoku.
I buy more than I can read;
I still buy books I know I won't read.
are you a tsundoku as well?
ps.
the books in the photo aren't the ones i "let to pile up" as i have already finished half of 'em. some more than once; others i only perused intermittently as i can't read non-fiction the way i devour fiction books and manga~
Awwwww! A lover of books in the time of ebooks and tablets and all the technology. I'm like you, I love the smell of them pages. Keep reading and appreciating books! See you around Steemit. Followed.

Hahaha... I like that, "put 'em in queue "to read"... - that's exactly what I do with books... and tabs in my pc too! Then I get distracted! So many things to read... so little time... lol

and then there are good books where you'll be happily stuck, lost in their world
after finishing, you'll be rereading some snippets or the whole damn book or the series itself lol
