I have so many books in my BTR list that I am actually starting to become scared of my list! It just keeps on growing! I have 41 books on my list so far... And I have the same issue as Lillith, most of the books are first to a series.

I feel your agony! I am going to go broke trying to keep with my lists. On one list, my B&N wish list, I have 31 books, each belonging to a series. On my half.com wish list, I have about 20, most are the first in their series. I plan on having my own library some day, so its a good start. It's gonna come down to food or books soon. Pretty soon.

I have so many... I lost count! But I'd rather not know a number. I might end up feeling overwhelmed

I have a couple of different piles...I have my "to be bought" pile that at the moment has 333 books on it...but I just found 2 more that I want, so it will soon have 335 ;D I put it in Excell so I don't have to count them, it does it for me. My "To be read" pile has 38 books in it...however instead of having the first book in a series, some of these books are #2,3,4 in the series and I haven't found #1 yet I get a book budget each month, so some months when I only have 1 or 2 books coming out on my wish list, I will hit the Book exchange in town and get lots of books that I want at great prices, like 1/4 of what one would spend buying them new. and they are in great contidion.

I don't usually make a books to read list because I usually just walk into a book store and find like five or six books I want....however, I do have a pretty extensive list of books to buy with the release date they come out on... Mainly they are the next book to all the different series that i have read...

I have 530 books on my TBR/TBB (to be bought) list. I keep track of them in an excel spreadsheet. I have them listed alphabetically by author instead of broken down into genre's, I should probably break them into genere's but that would add a lot more work, so I'll just use it as it is. I print out the list 1 a month, and then when I go to the store I have my list of things that I KNOW I want and I don't get too sidetracked by the other books. But since I love reading, and I read just about everything I still get side tracked and I usually have 3 or 4 more books to add to my list by the end of a shopping visit.
EDIT: LOL I just realized I already answered this question! And my list has grown from 335 to 530 in that short amount of time...man I'm going to be burried under an avalance of books if this keeps up! LOL

I'm almost exactly the same, except my "to buy" list is about half as many, I have a TBR list for the library, and I also have a classics list my mentor (code for Big Sister, like Big Brothers Big Sisters) gave me that I'm making myself read before I get out of high school (two more years!). The list has 87 books on it, but I've only read 30 so far. So. Many. Books...
