I have a library in my house in Rock Hill with over 3000 books, all
arranged according to the Dewey Decimal System. We have just finished the
library at our farm which will have well over 1000 books. I'm pretty sure
I have this:

Tsundoku
*Tsundoku* (Japanese: 積ん読) is acquiring reading materials but letting them
pile up in one's home without reading them. It is also used to refer to
books ready for reading later when they are on a bookshelf. The term
originated in the *Meiji* era (1868–1912) as Japanese slang.
I have read most of them but will never finish them all.
