For every 2 books I read this year that are not on my TBR I will read a book that is. At the rate I add books to my TBR, I will still fall behind. 🤷‍♂️

We are about a month away from the end of the year, but close enough for me to report on my achievement or lack there of. I actually did pretty well. It turns out that 1 out of every 5 books this year was from my TBR list. I set too high a goal. I did it intentionally to keep reminding me to go back to my TBR list. I am happy with the dent I made in the list. Unfortunately though the list grew by considerably more books than I removed from it. I'll try to do better next year.

I can't believe i don't have a dedicated TBR list.

So, those numbers, what do they refer to? The Ultimate Book of Golf, 100 Greatest Books Ever Written or Functions of a Complex Variable? Or, The Toolache Wallaby, The Toltec Savior, or Awakening the Faithful??? Perhaps something altogether different? Patriot Pirates?

I am rereading the play, Hedda Gabler, because i just saw a most wonderful movie based on it, Hedda, with Tessa Thompson. Two salient lessons, among many: Don't count your chickens before they hatch and never hang with anyone with brains and energy but lacks ethics.

:)
