cluttering up the internet since 2001

 

what have you nibbled lately?

This month I really set out to stop buying books…to start reading more of the ones I have.  I’m failing miserably.  I got an email from Borders telling me about my $10 in border bucks and a 40% coupon and then once I started, I could not stop.  I’ve been trying to organize my reading and I’m failing at that too. I seem to have a nibble problem.  I read a bit of this and a bit of that and then stumble over to another buffet and read some of this and a bit of that and round and round I go, never reading an entire book thereby never really finishing any meal.  Yet, this nibbling has been a habit that I obtained slowly over time. I stopped making myself read entire novels when they most clearly sucked halfway through.  Things I’ve been nibbbling.

The Accidental Bestseller – Wendy Wax

The Strain - Guillermo Del Toro & Chuck Hogan

The Summer Affair - Elin Hilderbrand

Firefly Lane – Kristin Hannah

Those are just the things I currently remember since I’m not looking at my overflowing buffet…er..I mean nightstand.  What are you nibbling at?  Does this happen to other people, this inability to focus on one book and actually read it?
