The game of thrones series. I love watching on tv and know the books have to be amazing, but they are so daunting to try to commit to

Two Goosebumps books in Japanese. They look simple enough, if only I can convince myself to slowly make my way through them. 8)

Oh my gosh I have a whole list of TBR books. I keep buying more and more books that I can't finish. I have a book buying problem. I buy way too many books that I need so about an eight of my book shelf is book that I've never read. I also have a bad habit of not finishing my books.

I actually haven't read most of the books I bought. I just completely changed my taste in books and now I don't really have money to buy new ones.

This list is going to be extreme. I have about 10 star wars books that I have bought that I need to read. I have the Assassin's Creed series staring at me. Kate Forsyth series is also staring at me. And those are just the series, not the numerous standalone books waiting for me.

My bookshelves are filled with unread books that I haven't gotten around to reading. I always buy new ones to read instead of going back and reading the ones I already have.
Most notable is Gone With the Wind that's been gathering dust in my shelf for almost a year now. I am definitely going to start it one of these days.

I also have this habit of buying books and never getting to read them. I bought the whole Jane Austin collection, and I just haven’t had the time to read them...

Sometimes I don't finish books I've bought but still go ahead to buy others. There's one I got like two years ago and I have never read it, A Royal Fortune.

I have a list of books I bought a long time ago that I haven't read yet. One of then is a book titled ' Attitude is Everything' by Keith Harrell. Another of such is ' Sell like Crazy' by Sabry Subi. I hope to finish both pretty soon.
