Tsundoku

Tsundoku, not to be confused with Sudoku, the puzzle game. Tsundoku, according to the Oxford Dictionary website, is a japanese word that although it does not have an english synonym, it means "the act of leaving a book unread after buying it, typically piling it together with other books similarly unread".
Well, this may or may not apply entirely to me, because I still get to read my books, rather slowly.
I like the fact that unlike before, I can now track my reading progress in my Goodreads account. I have read many of my 500 plus books that I own, (can't tell exactly how many) but I have never keep track of such feat.


I went to Goodwill, Two of them, and found me a total of five books. But, and I know I am saying this as a way of softening the guilt; I paid less than 99 cents each because in both stores, I was offered a senior discount of 15%. Ok, now, I feel a little better.
I do plan on reading them eventually. I just finished my pledge of 12 books for this year in Goodreads, and still have half a year left. I am reading more than last year.
Anyway, here are the new titles:

The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck. Winner of the 1932 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction (Novel).




The Strange Case of Dr. Jekill and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson.




Dark Matter; The Private Life of Sir Isaac Newton. (A Novel) by Philip Kerr



Voices of Freedom 3rd Edition Volume 2: A documentary History. Eric Foner



Masas y Poder (Crowds and Power) by Elias Canetti



So, these are the latest literary treasures I've just added to my collection.
Until I found more, so long.
