I am not cool because I own too many books. At one point, I was buying at least ten books for every one that I read. I don't have a 'to read' shelf, I have to read BOOKCASES. A few months ago, I bought on ebay for $250 a used collection of Britannica's Great Book series, that's 45 fat books filled with so much good stuff. That alone is going to take me years to read. I've been good lately, and I avoid getting brand new books unless written by an exceptional author, but just browsing Amazon makes me drool, and I build up a mental shopping list of stuff I want to eventually get. I've run out of shelf space, and I'm running out of apartment space, help!
