I was very naughty last year and bought 62 books (thanks to a last minute splurge when I was supposedly Christmas shopping for other people) and only read 45 of them despite my best efforts.
And of course with a new year come a bunch of new interesting books to read so I'm back buying new ones just right away. Oh well!
