Bought too many books this month and also didn’t read enough. The pile tomorrow is going to be the smallest in quite a while.

… yeah, it’s gonna take two pictures again. Sigh. I’ve got two weeks off coming, I can tighten this up. I swear.

“That’s not that bad,” you might be thinking. “Didn’t you say yesterday that your unread shelf was going to be unprecedented and absolutely ridiculous?”

Sigh.

I’m never getting caught up.
