It’s fun to laugh at our selves. Let’s face it, many of us buy too many e-books (am I allowed to say that?) I know for myself I have more e-books than I’ll ever be able to read. I also got a feeling that this site is jam packed full of e-book hoarders just like myself…
@gospelebooks: oh I am one … Can't read fast enough!

Just bought 22 @gospelebooks, most $0.99, some free. I'm a sucker for cheap books, but someone needs to stop me. No time to read all these

^These people are HOARDERS. Probably a lot worse than myself too. Ha!
I thought it would be fun to create a Facebook cover series poking some light fun at ourselves. Tenda Spencer helped draw out what I envisioned and the results were hilariously amazing.
Click on the images below to see the first instalments (in their full size).
Leave a comment below or tweet us @gospelebooks showing us, telling us or confessing to how big of a e-book hoarder you are. Also we’d love to see some screenshots of your Facebook profile with the cover you’re using. We’ll re-tweet some of them and who knows, maybe something you say or do may inspire the next volume of E-BOOK HOARDERS!

I have about 4000 kindle books. I read about 175 books a year. So I have about a 25 year supply
Wow!
That’s an impressive read count though.
Well, my collection of fiction alone never seems to drop below 100 and that’s not counting the biblical books, how-to types, children’s books, and many others that I also have on my kindle.
Check our Twitter page http://www.twitter.com/gospelebooks for a lot of confessions :) Lots of fun.
I am trying to cut back due to some loving criticism from my family, but this is the site I check first each day to see how I can build my e-book library. My name is Rick and I’m an e-bookaholic.
A friend of mine told me two years ago that every true Christian has a Kindle (or an ebook reader for that matter). So I said to myself that if I ever wanna go to heaven, I better get my ebook reader as soon as it is called “today”. :)
I did not hoard E-books until a friend turned me on to Gospel eBooks Daily Newsletter..now I definitely qualify!
Hey! You can’t blame us Ginger :) haha
Hi…my name is Lanny Bivens, and I am an e-book hoarder. I can’t wait till I get your email each day to check and see what I can find. I subscribe to other sies as well hoping to score a good deal. I have way more books than I will ever read. I get them because they are a good deal and think…I may want to read that one day. GIULTY as charged.
Well, my son just saw this and said, “That’s what you are!” so I guess I might as well admit that I, too, am an ebook hoarder. I preordered the original kindle fire (so have had it for about a year and a half), and currently have 1,667 items in my library (some of those *are* for the kids, though). I generally read 3-4 books per week, but even at that rate it’s quite obvious that I’ll never make it through them all.
Thanks for helping me build my massive virtual library affordably!
I just “bought” about 10 or 12 ebooks in the morning the other day from your ebook grab bag that were free, yet this afternoon when I received another email advertising more ebooks, I didn’t hesitate in looking for more! I have well over 225 ebooks and I’m always looking for more! Have I read them all? Are you kidding?! Most, I’ve read only the first page to see if I wanted it, so I bought it and resumed reading whatever I was reading!
You are correct. When do you say “stop”, when there are so many good free ebooks out there. There so much to read and so little time. Thank you Gospel ebooks – great ministry!!
So many books…so little time! ;)
I am so glad Amazon alerts with an instant order update when I try to buy a book that I already purchased. I have the kindle application on my very old iPod, on my cheap Android, on my winXP, my winVista, my win7, and now my win8. Most of what little reading I do is done on my ipod. After all, I don’t feel I can sit and read when my house needs cleaning and who know when my house will be clean.
Thanks for the cover!
Yes, I am an e-book hoarder. My name is Chris (group- Hi Chris). I cannot help myself. If there is enough room on my hard drive, I will continue to hoard e-books. I don’t think it hurts anyone, so I keep doing it. I’m not sure if I even need to be in group?
I, too, am an ebook hoarder. I, too, live for that email to show up in my box! I love my ebooks!
