Just curious, how many unread books do you have on your Kindle? I think I have about 10. I just keep adding to my library!! My husband thinks it is ridiculous that I have that many unread books and just keep buying them...oh well, what can I say? I'm hopelessly addicted and can't help myself!!

I'm picky and don't like clutter (even electronic clutter 
). So I won't download a book, even a free one, unless I feel sure it'll be interesting and something I really want to spend my time on. Which means at any given time I've usually only got four or five books waiting to be read.

I have about 33. But many of those are free or bargain priced books and many of those were only at that price for a limited time. The others were books from the series of another book I had read. If I like a book from a series I then go a get the others before I forget .

All of them.
I have 27 1/2 pages, of which about 6 pages are samples so I guess that doesn't count. All the rest are books or magazine issues I have not read. Well, one I am currently reading. Once I finish a book, I delete it so it can live at Amazon.
Actually, I guess I should correct that. . . .I do have a bunch of 'classics' that I've read before that I downloaded to re-read. Probably 10 or so. . . . And I have a copy of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.
Anyway, there are a lot. . . .

Gee, I have tons of unread books on my Kindle. I guess I come from the school of thought that says "You can never have too many books", and "You can never have too fast a computer", and "You can never have too much memory in your computer" (the same applies to disc space).
I guess I have around 100-150 unread books. Mostly bargain books and freebies -- around 10% are paid for at full price, and I try to shop around -- sometimes the same book can be listed at different prices - especially public domain stuff. I have very few books that I paid 9.99 or more.
I like to read more than 1 book at a time. My wife says I have the attention span of a knat. So I am currently reading a western and 3 mystery/thrillers, plus the current issue of Analog. I fit right in with the "Samples" idea that Amazon has implemented.. I have about as many samples as I have books, and I love to switch back and forth reading them too. I have only finished 1 sample so far - which I then bought to continue reading - "Black Widow", I like the Sanibel Island series. So far, I haven't finished any of the books - but I will, it'll just take some time.

I have 60 unreads, but that includes the complete works of E.R.Burroughs as 1 book as well as the complete works of A.C.Doyle also as 1.
