Do any of you just buy books to add them to your library?

Knowing you may not get to them for a while?

What do you do, do you only add it to your library if you read it?

Do you limit yourself when you see books and say you already have a waitlist at home?

Great set of rules! I have failed, not to worry though I will start to apply rules to myself and my shelf.

‘Whatever works’ is always the best rule. I kind of started doing it because I hated going to peoples houses, glancing at every single book in their bookshelves - as every sane person does - asking about a title and hearing ‘oh, I haven’t read that one’.

Thanks for the input and encouragement!

Have a great day!
