The photo above is a messy bookshelf in one room of my house. See all those books on their sides, and mass-market mystery paperbacks carelessly tossed into baskets? Notice that there is no room to wedge in even one more book anywhere? It's become very frustrating, and in an effort to clear this mess up, here and in all of the other shelves in my house which look much the same, my goal this reading year is to focus on books I've owned forever that have never been read. I don't know how long my willpower is going to last before I buy more books, but I at least have to try. So this year it's all about the crime novels and mysteries that already live on my shelves (with some new ones I'd preordered earlier). I don't even know what I have, to be honest, so I'll more than likely surprise myself.
