IMHO, the practice some people have of grabbing several books at a time
and hanging on to them is not a particularly good one. How many books can
one person really work on at one time? Wouldn't it be better to just get
one or 2, finish them, then get more, leaving open the possibility that
someone else might do the others you thought about? That seems more
efficient a way to get more books into the collection faster. If some
book looks particularly interesting, just do that one first, instead of
kinda reserving it for yourself later by grabbing it. After all, someone
else might be equally interested, and do it quicker than you might get
around to it.
Just my thoughts.
