Now, how many of those books have you read on your shelf?
I have two shelves. One have books and the other has albums and other things. I can honestly say I have not read all the books I have on my book shelf. I look at them and say I should read them but I do not. I have no answer for that. How many of you have no answer as to why you do not read the books on your shelf?

Actually I was born in the United States so English is my Mother Tongue. Hebrew is the language of Israel and I learned Hebrew but not fluent in it.

I have two bookshelfs. One is upstairs in my bedroom and the other downstairs. Both are full of books I still have to read. I do go through them and pick one and after I read it I put it back on the shelf.

Do you put it back on the shelf so when you want to read it again it will be there?

I have three bookshelves. One is resources for my writing, so those aren't read except for information. I have one that is mostly novels, and I've read all those. And I have one large bookshelf with a mix of resource and novels. I've read most of the novels on that one, though there are some I haven't read yet.

I have gotten books from a friend and also have bought 2nd hand ones so have enough to read for awhile. I have emptied some of the books off one of my shelves.

I own books, but they are reference books, cook books and such. A few novels.
