I've been watching videos on YouTube lately (and making my own as well) and one fellow that I watch put himself on a book buying ban. I thought about it for a little while and then decided it was actually a good idea.
So, I have put myself on a book buying ban for the summer. I have over 50 books on my e-reader and a ton more on bookshelves and tables all over my house so it isn't like I am lacking in reading material around here. I decided to set up a stack of ten books to try and read over the summer. Normally I just grab something and read whatever I'm in the mood for so this is going to be an interesting experiment for me.
My stack of ten:
The Guernsey Literary and Potatoe Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annier Barrows
Ghost Road Blues by Jonathan Maberry
The Year of the Flood by Margaret Atwood
The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley
Objects of Worship by Claude LaLumiere
People Live Still in Cashtown Corners by Tony Burgess
A Book of Tongues by Gemma Files
The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova
Reading Lolita in Tehran by Azar Nafisi
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski
I'll come back and update this post as I finish them. Here's hoping that I'll get them done this summer so I can go back to buying new books :D
