Ellie (goellie3) | 22 comments Hey guys!

Please let me know if you have this problem!

After going to the library and checking out seven books today, I have come to a conclusion that my TBR is way too big :)I then checked the list that I have on my computer, I have over 100 books on the list. I feel like I have too many books and not enough time because as soon as I finish one, I log-on to Goodreads and find 10 more I want to read :)

Ugh! I guess this is a good problem!

Ellie (goellie3) | 22 comments I have the same problem!! I feel like there are too many books but not enough time to read them (and thats not a bad thing)!


message 6: by Cassie (new)

Cassie I have 500 books to read and it's kinda overwhelming. (: Goal is to at least read most of them before I'm 40 xD.

Batsiii (belivermazerunner) | 1 comments I have the same problem.
I have got over 1500 books on my TBR list.
Can I read all that in a lifetime?? ;)

mop (yikesmontana) I have waay to many books to read. And I have read waay too many books. I have read 3-4 books a week. It's crazy! I could never choose a top 10. Top 20, maybe. :D

message 16: by Little Bee (new)

Little Bee (littlebeesreads) No, 4 and an audio book lol


message 17: by Ellie (new)

Ellie (goellie3) | 22 comments :) There are just too many books!!


message 18: by mop (new)

mop (yikesmontana) I don't buy audio books... I don't really like my Kobo either, I just use it because I have a website where you can download free books... I just love, good ol' fashion books :p


message 19: by Ellie (new)

Ellie (goellie3) | 22 comments I prefer "Old fashioned" books too :) I do have a Nook but nothing compares to paper.


message 20: by mop (new)

mop (yikesmontana) Call me odd, but I love the smell of books :D


message 21: by Little Bee (new)

Little Bee (littlebeesreads) I love the smell and feel of books also. but I just started listening to audiobooks. It helps when I drive an hour (one way) to work. especially in the evenings during rush hour.


message 22: by mop (new)

mop (yikesmontana) Oh, I guess that would come in handy.

I completely agree :) The only downside to audiobooks is every once in a while that I do listen to them. some of their voices bother me :)


message 24: by Little Bee (new)

Little Bee (littlebeesreads) I listened to one for the book Fat Kid Rules the World, it was narrated by the actor Matthew Lillard...he did AWESOME. he really brought all the characters to life. Right now I am listening to The Monstrumologist. I have about 23 minutes left of it. It is narrated by Steven Boyer who does some small roles, his newest role is in the new Leo DiCaprio movie The Wolf of Wall Street. He does okay...some of his voices are REALLY creepy, but the character in the book is really creepy...


message 25: by Ellie (new)

Ellie (goellie3) | 22 comments :) Listened to the Secret Garden about a year ago for school. I can't remember who narrated it, but the woman's voice was really nasally and high pitched making it somewhat annoying to listen to.


message 26: by Little Bee (new)

Little Bee (littlebeesreads) Oh goodness...yeah I bet! I have a free audio book....Whodunnit...I haven't listened yet but I have a feeling it is going to be creepy voiced....there is a show called Whodunnit, and the host/butler is SCARY as all get out....I wonder if maybe it is the same person? LOL


message 27: by mop (new)

mop (yikesmontana) Oh geez... I remember in school we read the Hunger Games (Awesome teacher.) and it was an audiobook. The girl who narrated it was British and it was hard to understand what she was saying. I just bought the book for myself and read it again.


message 28: by Ellie (new)

Ellie (goellie3) | 22 comments I have done that too : just bought the book because I couldn't understand the audio. Sometimes in school I just wish that we could just read the book :)


message 29: by mop (new)

mop (yikesmontana) I know :p I feel like if you just listen to the audiobook, it's not the same as reading it.


message 30: by Ellie (new)

Ellie (goellie3) | 22 comments I completely agree


message 31: by Alexis (new)

Alexis | 4 comments I have that same problem my mom takes my books sometimes and hides them where I can't get them. I hate it so much.
