Stacking the Shelves: 05.27.2012

By Zara D. Garcia-Alvarez

These are my beloved book stats—I own:

• six bookshelves
• 1,652 books listed on Goodreads
• 2,554 Plum Points
• a love of three favourite publishers
• 178 blog posts
• 454 comments
• 17,329 hits
• one Brampton Public Library Card
• and only 24 hours in a day

which equals a total of a whole lot of book loving love…and well, a compulsion to read literary fiction, memoirs, poetry, short stories, children’s books, and YA!

What does all this book madness lead to?

• broken-in book spines
• bent pages
• last-minute bookmarks
• bookshelf envy
• blog branding
• all-night read-a-thons
• author worship
• reading event line-ups
• literary fiction crushes
• mailbox anxiety disorder
• publishers’ rejection slips
• twitter addiction
• hashtag deciphering
• Follow Fridays
• Friday Reads
• curse of the Rafflecopter
• GFC’d, Linky-Linked, Networked Blog-Bogged, and
• feeding yourself to the Feedburner
• doing the Dewey
• chatting on Tweetchat
• buffing at BufferApp
• and pinning on Pinterest
• giving your life over to The Book Depository
• jumping on the Meme Wagon
• and of course…
• stacking your shelves!

which inevitably leads me to this post.

As a book-breathing individual, I, like you, am compelled to stack my shelves.
