I’ve been on a self-imposed book restriction for a while now. I have a problem…I LOVE books! Don’t misunderstand me though. While I love reading books….I am more obsessed with having them. KQ wrote a post about this. I have a pretty sizeable stack of books that I’m trying to read. But every time I get done with one I buy three more. Desiring God had a book sale a few months back where everything was super cheap. We all know that John Piper is my fav so of course I had to buy a ton of books….I mean, they were on sale! After that I told myself that I was not allowed to buy anymore books until I read all of the ones I already had. That hasn’t really worked very well…I’ve been sneaking books one at a time here and there. And my list of books that I want continues to grow.
Here are just a few that I’m buying if I ever let myself off restriction.
what are yall reading right now? anything good? there’s always room on the list:)
Dude. I do the SAME thing…collect books and dont get to them. Or i start them and dont finish b/c i gain intrest in another. My fav’s? Kite runner, time travlers wife, into thin air. I find i get through the novels more often than the self help stuff…it keeps my intrest longer. Jeff’s a total political goob. Reads stuff by ann coulter, hannity, bortz, bla….

i am so jealous! i have always had stacks of books that i DID read. i can’t let go of them once i’ve read them. now, since i have children and no time i do have a stack of books i haven’t gotten to. i like your taste though (pride and prejudice is my fave) so i need to try your piper guy!
