When it comes to reading, there are so many fantastic books out there that it is very easy for your to-be-read pile to continue to grow exponentially in comparison to your read pile. This works the same way as your Pinterest cooking and DIY boards.

We’re like that too. But no more! We’re seizing the book and going back to a few books from last fall that we’re picking up off the TBR pile. So grab a cold beverage, pull up a lounger, and join us as we slow things down with a good book. (I think ECW’s #borntowalk competition is wearing us out…)
