Throughout my life I have always accumulated books at a rate which makes it hard to read them all. Since becoming active in CT I have seen many books recommended which sound interesting, even if they do not cover any area I am collecting. I have a bad habit of looking online for used copies of these books and it is amazing how many I find at a price is seems worth getting and putting aside for a rainy day, usually less than $10. I'm finding that the pile of unread, or at least unfinished, coin-related books is growing. I'm not sure whether I should retire so that I have more time to read or ask everyone here to stop recommending books!
I've been in the same boat for a while now. I also enjoy history books. Way too many. And retirement is still a number of years away.
