Do any of you just buy books to add them to your library?

Knowing you may not get to them for a while?

What do you do, do you only add it to your library if you read it?

Do you limit yourself when you see books and say you already have a waitlist at home?

Unfortunately I have to consider myself an addict. I do read (and listen) a lot, but I seem to "collect" more than I'll ever be able to get to. And I keep on adding to the collection. From Libby mostly, I tend to add (permanently by many means) just about anything I see recommended in reviews, on Reddit, etc.

I'm 78. I'll ever get to even 2% of them ๐Ÿ˜  I'm sick in the head ๐Ÿคฃ
