I think I am.

I buy books at a faster rate than I read them.

Often when I enter a bookshop, I can't help getting carried away with the book covers, titles and synopsis... and so I by them...

YES!!!! Definitely! I'm so glad you asked this question! I always buy books and then two weeks later, I don't read them anymore! I wish there was some way to solve this "problem"...I tell myself, just be glad I'm spending my money on books to expand my mind and skills, rather than drugs, alcohol, or cigarettes like some people (all of which HARM the body and mind).

Ive got my own library!! Seriously I have, well its the box room at the top of the stairs that my hubby has shelved for me, that is crammed full of books. Im slowly weeding through them and selling them on Ebay, but I seem to buy more than I sell so its an losing battle! I cant go into town without visiting all the charity shops and books shops just in case there is a book in them I haven't read. At the moment I must be buying 8-10 books a week, and yes I do read them all.

Me. I have so many books but hardly ever get the time to read them! I know I will do sooner or later but in the meantime, I'm trying not to buy any more books until I have some spare time...

I'm doing a part time degree at the moment, and working full time so once I have finished my degree, I will be catching up on my reading!

YAH!!! I have lots of books that I haven't read, whenever I see a bookstore it's like the books are calling so I have to look around, and if I find a pretty interesting book/book cover I usually either buy it or something. hehehe

Atlast ! Someone with my disease. I have books I bought 10 years ago but still have not read. I have all these great plans but just never get around to it.
I do love the way they look on my bookshelf though!

Guilty!

I bought quite a few books - and they sit happily on my bookshelves.
And these are NOT novels. I am not into novel. These are hard cover books - like BIG ones!
