Confession: I have a lot of unread books on my bookshelves. Tuff life. It drives me bonkers every day, just looking at them, teasing me. I so badly want to read them all by yesterday. Because awesome new books come out every week. How is a bibliophile supposed to keep up? I receive new books pretty often to review, on top of buying ones that I’m interested in, and I really want to read all of them. Who knew being interested in so many things could bother you? :p But the only way I could do that is if I did nothing else. (Wouldn’t be the worst.)
If I could pick a super power right now, it would be to be able to read (and absorb) a book a day pic.twitter.com/6GtB6UbkPS

I know I’m not the only one with this problem. I see all you book bloggers and bookworms with your fantastic shelves on Instagram and know there’s just no way you could have read all those books. We can’t feel too guilty because we know we’re supporting authors, publishers and bookstores, and we’re interested in lots of stories, so let’s be proud and honest about what we have. 😉
I have….. 136 unread books on my shelves.
So, I challenge you! How many unread books are on your shelves? Share on Twitter and Instagram with #OurTrueShelves!
56 unread books on my shelves not counting the ones in storage… RIP @ me -Andy
