I was #audiocleaning today and came across this reading wish list. Dated 2004. In the ensuing 14 years, I‘ve only read 10 of the 24 books listed. And that, my friends, is why I‘ll never finish my TBR.

Riveted_Reader_Melissa And that my friend, is why Litsy is our tribe! 🤜🤛. But seriously, read Harry Potter already! 😂 7y
PenguinInFlight I don‘t think I would know what to do with myself if I finished my TBR, LOL. 7y

AmyG Harry Potter! I wish I could read it for the first time...again. 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Yes, we are a tribe of the same stripes. I read the first HP a couple of years ago. It‘s cute but not really my jam. I‘m a #noYA reader. 🤷🏼♀️ 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @BarbaraTheBibliophage The first 2 or 3 are really YA, but the story gets older and more complex as they age through the school years. That in itself is so rare to see in writing. Characters who literally grow through the series, and their comprehension of the story going around them deepens as the grow up. 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @BarbaraTheBibliophage But hey, at least you tried it, that‘s at least a check off the to read list. 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @PenguinInFlight Haha. True. I‘d go to a bookstore or a library! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I‘ve heard that ... it is unique! 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa But seriously, check it off, it‘s not on your to read list anymore.👍 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Yeah, it‘s not on my TBR despite not having read every word. Good point! 7y
ForCuriosity I made one of those this year, I doubt I‘ll be able to finish them all as well 7y
merelybookish Fun to see what you was on your mind in 2004. I feel my TBR shifts. I just lose interest in reading some books/genres. Nevertheless, the TBR continues to grow. 🤷 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @merelybookish I agree. My reading taste has expanded, yet some of these are still favorites. I just rediscovered Sujata Massey—want to read her new one and catch up on the series I was reading in ‘04. 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Paintinthenight I think half the fun is the planning, even knowing I won‘t read it all. 7y
Andrew65 I really enjoyed![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

The Rule of FourMdargusch Wow! I never made a list for Books until I started Litsy! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Mdargusch I have this “suddenly blank mind” issue when I cross the threshold of grocery stores, bookstores, libraries, and Target. I get overwhelmed by the stimuli and my mind goes blank. Lists have been my solution for decades. 😎 7y
Mdargusch Good point. That‘s what I use Goodreads for. So I guess I just do electronic lists. 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Mdargusch This list was pre-GR. I use electronic lists now too! 7y
