I finally stopped getting too much from the library after I'd been blogging for a few years, but I used to do that same thing: check out a pile, renew them for the full period, return them, check them out again, never read them. I mean, at least it's good for the book's statistics, so it won't get pulled from the collection.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245378071915174733.post-29048286092511736852013-11-04T14:45:21.866-05:002013-11-04T14:45:21.866-05:00YOU CAN DO IT GABY!

I have utter faith in your ability to complete your challenge :) My personal challenge for the month of November is to whittle down my TBR pile here in the apartment, as it has grown somewhat exponentially, even while I've been away. So let's get down to business! TO DEFEAT THE HUNS.... I mean, the books!Alexa S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13185723439360170259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245378071915174733.post-29352066213891243102013-11-03T21:54:44.315-05:002013-11-03T21:54:44.315-05:00I'M THE SAME.

How long does this last?? Not that I'm complaining). If I didn't have so many damned ARC's to get done this month I would totally be doing this (silly, silly me. No you CAN NOT request as many books as you want just because they are so shiny! What are going to do when they're almost all accepted? Oh wait. That did happen. Idiot.)Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17058009271288566400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245378071915174733.post-53018119870483109152013-11-01T21:37:34.577-04:002013-11-01T21:37:34.577-04:00Oo I have Scarlet to read too!

For some reason I have very few review books due, so it's perfect :DAnya @ On Starships and Dragonwingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11966260114472122150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245378071915174733.post-20107402158167065752013-11-01T19:25:14.549-04:002013-11-01T19:25:14.549-04:00I'm like this ALL THE TIME.

Books are books dammit. I really need to read my library books more often. <br /><br />Good luck!

It seems like all my holds arrived at once =( I know that I will read at least three of them by the end of November, so that'll be my goal. Anything more than that is bonus =PMelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06191496127517215717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245378071915174733.post-43408756879269346702013-11-01T15:58:34.892-04:002013-11-01T15:58:34.892-04:00This is the reason I don't go to the library a...This is the reason I don't go to the library anymore. I already have so many books on my TBR pile and if I come back with piles of library books, things are going even more out of control :p<br /><br />I hope you get to read Scarlet, it's very good. I've been trying to push other people to read it by using it in many TTT lists, so enjoy :D I'm reading Of beauty and beast now and I'm not really loving it as much as I wanted :(Mel@Thedailyprophecyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01516514938771433319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245378071915174733.post-82998070699601259352013-11-01T15:45:35.810-04:002013-11-01T15:45:35.810-04:00I have this problem except I keep buying the book ...I have this problem except I keep buying the book because I hate having to wait for my holds to be ready :). My hubby tries to make it so I can't buy anymore books until I have read a certain number of the ones I already have. Try that with your library books? I hope that helps! Good luck!!

I'm a libraria...Don't feel bad about that! I'm a librarian, and I do the same things. My eyes are way bigger than my stomach and I'm always checking out way more books that I could ever read. And I renew as many times as I can, and often still return books unread. I do read a lot of books, too, of course, but a huge number I don't get around to.<br /><br />But I think that's great that you're challenging yourself. I'm thinking of making November all about reading Edelweiss and Netgalley books. There's a challenge going around call Netgalley November, and I think I'm going to join. <br /><br />Good luck on your challenge!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245378071915174733.post-35438981395493410622013-11-01T14:45:46.721-04:002013-11-01T14:45:46.721-04:00Wow...how many times can you renew.

And I renew most of my loans too. :)<br /><br /><a href="http://readbooksandblog.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Read Books and Blog</a> | <a href="http://addictedtofilms.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Addicted to Films</a><br />Addicted to Filmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14416237675089471086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245378071915174733.post-25760112825108679462013-11-01T14:41:42.511-04:002013-11-01T14:41:42.511-04:00I currently have 11 books out from the library and...I currently have 11 books out from the library and there are like 10 more I want (but I can't get them. That would stupid and irresponsible), so I'm totally down for doing this challenge with you! I can do one or two a week, depending on what review books I have to read, but I love this idea. And you. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
