Currently, it’s around 75 books. It used to be over 200, but I realized there are only certain books that I will actually read, so I narrowed it down.
A majority of these books have already been released, and there are some that I’m just waiting to be released (and of course there are some that I want to read but don’t know when they are going to come out).
Too long…
Want to read some Malatesta, a book about ID Software, and This is How You Lose the Time War, but my nature makes this difficult. I always think like “Wow I want to read” and then will continue sitting on some game or website instead lol
If it helps, I read the ID Software book a few years ago and it was great.
I’ve heard! ID fascinates me on the whole so I imagine it’s great, thanks for the motivation!

More than I would ever bother to count or set a number to.
Same. I don’t see a reason to assign a number because, like my to-play list it’s embarrassingly large.
The struggle is real.
Overly long, I like putting books on my “To Read” list and then promptly forgetting about it.
Used to be 1000+ as it had accumulated for something like 15 years but early 2020 I made use of time I had available to go through it and trimmed out a lot of stuff that no longer appealed to me.
Got it down to under 200 but now it’s close to 400, but! All stuff I want to read and will get to once I’ve got the time and don’t have reading to do for courses I’m taking.
My to-read list is an ever growing calamity, but I’m only ever consciously aware of handful of books near the top of it at a time, which keeps me sane and moving forward.
107 books. Why did I do this to myself?
10 books. I had hundreds in my TBR list on GoodReads and when I switched to StoryGraph a few months ago I wanted a fresh start.
Way too long, I just keep adding more than I can keep up with. I could probably cut books that I added years ago an no longer would be interested in… Currently 545 books
Not too bad. 7 books, three having question marks to indicate that I may not, in fact, read them. I’ve got a few on top of that if you count the “in progress” section.

I recently cleared out my To Read list because it was getting overwhelming to comb though. Down to 8 now, but I still keep picking up random books off Libby.
I try not to overexpand my list because until I have the time to tackle all of it, I might lose interest in the selected topics. We grow over the years and our interests change with us. This is why I limit my list to a year’s worth of books.
Same here but only a month or two. Sometimes 6 months go by and I realize I have only been reading a single author, sometimes it’s all over the place. But I don’t think I plan hundreds of books ahead of time at all, based on this thread I’m maybe odd man out.
I find if I plan too far ahead I start to get distracted with what I’m currently reading. If I see an interesting book, I might make a note of it, but I think maybe 10 books ahead, let myself catch up, and then pick some new ones.
I do have to stop myself from weekly half price trips though.
