I own slightly more books than I have read. Previously I used to pile up books that I’d randomly buy. But one thing I do differently is that I put a couple books in each place that I frequent. A couple in the living room while hanging out with my family, a couple in my office while a slow day at work, a couple in my bedroom for before sleeping, and a couple in a bag/car in case I don’t drive. I’ve found the benefit of surrounding myself with books in this way to make it always guaranteed I will pickup one and read. I think this is different than having an expansive library or piles of books in a room. This helps me read roughly 1-2 books a week and I simply order a new one to replace the book from the respective stack. I’m not a huge DNR person because it makes little sense nowadays that you can’t know enough about a book prior to buying it. I source an extensive backlog of books I’m interested in and rank them by a loose definition of up to 5 star priority based on my interest when I log them down. I feel like we are so spoiled to be able to source very good books and not waste our time with mediocre ones.
