My reading stack has now passed my own height (175 cm):
This happened because:
- I spent 18 months reading a lot of stuff for school;
- Friends kept recommending books to me;
- There have always been books I really should read (like the three-volume biography of Lyndon Johnson my mom left me); and
- Amazon is just so convenient.
(Some of those are gifts, too.)
I have therefore declared a moratorium on buying books from Amazon until I get through at least one of those shelves.
Then there's the problem of the 12 movies stacked up on my DVD player I have yet to watch...
