Not so much physical #books, but I have a burgeoning backlog of digital books that I've amassed over the past decade, the vast majority of which I haven't read (yet).

It turns out that there's a handy word for this phenomenon, courtesy of #Japanese: "tsundoku" (積ん読).

Tsundoku - Wikipedia

Pretty happy that I've started a 4-week #roadtrip, which will allow me time to read several physical books, as well as the much more dominant #audiobook. Currently reading #StarlessSea by Erin Morgenstern. It's deliciously written.

Beautiful word.

I am a master of Tsundoku.

The only Japanese word I know is "Kanchou".
