This should be everything unread on my fiction shelves plus everything unread on my Kindle. Items in bold are only on the Kindle. Several are on both, but I think I managed to remove all the duplicates. (Formatting it this way, it's kind of interesting to see where I started acquiring everything in ebook except for gifts and library discards.)

( 781 works of (mostly) fiction in a table )

I read today that Google's old link shortener, using the goo.gl domain, would stop working on August 25th. I didn't find any of their links in my journal, but I did find a bunch in my Twitter archive, so I grabbed copies of those links while I could still resolve them. (Most of them were Mental Floss retweets.)

I need to get back to curating my old tweets and including them in my journal archives before that entire site collapses into a black hole.

I also downloaded my archive of Pocket links last month when that site announced its retirement, but I hadn't used it in several years and honestly it was just another bitbucket to toss stuff into and forget about. I hardly ever actually made time to go back and read or watch any of the links I "saved for later." (The deadline for that one is October 8th.)

Seems like lately, time is less of a river and more of an avalanche.

Current Mood: blah

Starting to feel like instead of requesting book recommendations, I should solicit anti-recs. Like, I post a list of the 500 or so books I still have on my TBR and y'all tell me which ones not to bother with and why. (Although saying "move this one to the top of your pile" would also be actionable feedback.)

I did have a brief moment of sanity earlier when I saw someone pointing out a discount on physical copies of the Rivers of London series, which have been recommended to me multiple times. I got as far as the amazon.co.uk checkout page and then closed the browser tab because I was about to repeat the same mistake that I made years ago with the Discworld books which I STILL HAVE NOT READ even though they are taking up an entire shelf.

Anyway, I also have like 18 library books checked out, because I'm thoroughly ridiculous.

Current Mood: crazy
