Reading My Way to Ruin

I did some reading while happily pedaling away on my bike without a bike last night.  It came to my attention that I’d read through 100+ pages in an hour. I wasn’t trying to speed read or anything. The only thing that stopped me from going through another 100 or so was that I finished the book.

My Nook is potentially dangerous.

I could easily run through $40k of books on that thing without thinking about it.

I need some sort of warning notice:

Dear TLOTH,

You’ve now spent your entire retirement savings on books.

Love,

Your Credit Card

    • #I wanted MOAR book!
    • #MOAR!
    • #bye-bye retirement!
    • #I spent you on Tolstoy!
