TBR pile- the “to be read” pile. Anyone else have this? I feel like a symptom of working at a library is a TBR piles of some height. I think it increases when you have limited book shelf space.
I glance over at the coffee table and notice the TBR monolith on the corner growing while the currently reading pile has stagnated.
I get on kicks of interests and those sometimes stay. More often they wane.
So here is my TBR list for today:
FictionÂ
Adjustment Day – Chuck Palahniuk
Non-Fiction
Main Theme: Library Professional Development
Cultivating Engaged Staff : Better Management for Better Libraries – Margaret Zelman Law
The New Librarianship Field Guild – R. David Lankes
True Crime Book Club Title
Ghettoside : A True Story of Murder in America – Jill Leovy
Miscellaneous
Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics – Dan Harris
–Going to a meditation program series at the local library. Saw this and though why not.
Soulful Simplicity : How Living with Less can lead to so much more – Courtney Carver
–I’m one of those people who lost over 100 lbs of crap with KonMari method. ‘Nuff said.
The Dysfunctional Workplace: Theory, Stories, and Practice – Seth Allcorn & Howard F. Stein
–I read this one before but am pairing it with the dysfunctional library book to see the comparison.
Random DVD – Waxwork/Waxwork II
–One of our branches have taken excess DVD donations and made a browsing DVD collection of titles that could not be purchased with current collection development policies. Hence this lovely bad movie gem (the first one – the second is…ok).
-End List-
I understand the irony of mentioning KonMari and yet have a stack of books. I recognize it and accept it and relish in the fact I can shove them all in a book return and be done. They are all library books. I haven’t bought a new book I haven’t read in a long time. I did purchase a treasury of the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark series with the original illustrations, but I’ve read it over and over as a kid.
Do you have a TBR list? Longer or short than mine? Have themes within or are you more of a sporadic reader? With that, it’s on into the last of the weekend.
Now about that NetGalley list…
