My Book Addiction/ Reading Challenge

I have an addiction... to buying books.  Not necessarily to reading them.  But when I find a book at a great price that I may at some point in my life want to read well of course I have to buy it... right?  Right.  Well when they're $.50 at the library how can I pass that up?  Don't get me wrong, I love to actually read books too.  The problem is I'm much more inclined to read an ebook these days because it's convenient most of the time: in the dark, at night, while nursing, on my phone, and on my new iPad mini (thanks, Honey).  

Side note: You can download free ebooks from the library on the Overdrive app.

Anyway I have about 1 million physical books I need to read, and I'm finally making a point to start reading them.  Now, I will probably still be reading ebooks at times when it's inconvenient to read a book, like at 2 AM when I'm nursing and trying not to wake my husband.  But my goal is to read one physical book per month that I ALREADY own.

For October I've already begun reading The Red Tent so I will finish that.

I will take this challenge one month at a time in deciding which to read next. But trust me, I have plenty to chose from.
Just a few books from my collection
