The 11 Rules of the End of My Books Book Club

1. I am going to read all my books.
2. I will acquire no new books until I finish the books I have. No exceptions. (The addict can be permitted no loopholes.) Yes, this means gifted books, books won in raffles, books found abandoned in dumpsters.
3. I will borrow no books. From any source, libraries, friends, family.
4. I will sell each of my books when it is finished. (No exceptions.) Since I cannot sell the audiobooks in my itunes, they will be deleted.
5. I will read one book at a time.
6. I will try to say something intelligent about each book before I let it go.
7. When I am done I will gloat to the people who have accused me of being a mindless book hoarder, more interested in the rush I get from acquiring books than the act of processing what information there is between their covers. See, I will say, it was all part of some grand complex design. You mocked the early infrastructure stage, which to the uncreative soul may have looked like sad flea market consumerism. But now look on in shame at the finished project: One Well Read Son of A Bitch, more well-read than you will ever get close to being. So well-read there will be absolutely no place for me in this world. Freedom. 
8. When I am done, with the proceeds in my paypal account, I am going to Los Angeles, not the one in south California, but the one in south Patagonia. 
9. Then I will quit my job.
10. After that I will walk the earth like the Kung Fu. 
11. Fuck Kindle.
