My Tsunde Oku


The Japanese have a word...TsundeOku...which refers to a stack of purchased books still yet to be read. I actually have several of these stacks hidden out of sight so my wife won't get too impatient with me for hoarding books. Above are all my current stacks consolidated into one stack next to my bed. I must admit it's kind of embarrassing and this doesn't even include the ones on my Kindle. A Marie Kondo intervention may be necessary. I am working on it. I am always reading. I just see books that I find interesting and that I want to read. So I put them on the "next" stack. All those books will be read! Eventually.
