I love how you have almost gamified your approach. It's a ban but it's fun. Good luck with your home buying journey.

I have a point system too! Well I call it a button system, for every 4 books I read or challange i can check off i get a button. For each button i can buy a book, but i am not allowed to buy more than 2 books at a time and need to finish those before buying news books even if i do have some buttons saved up. Seeing the buttons in the jars really motivates me but also keeps me ontrack with reading the books i bought

I love how invested your kitty is in your goals video! This seems like a really fun way to gamify your book buying ban! I hope you do some check ins through out the year so we can follow along!

A point system for buying books is so smart! I struggle with impulse-buying books and manga, and something like that would totally help! Definitely a fun way to knock down a physical tbr!

Thank you! And yeah, impulse spending is where I fall down so hopefully this helps curb that!

Such a Unique and exciting idea Lily and I love the concept - I cant wait to follow along with your progress in 2024! I'm here cheering you on with this one!! I'm also challenging myself to get through some of my TBR Backlog and clear some of the series I have started in the Past couple of years and I know that 2024 is going to be another fab year for reading!!

This is really interesting! I love this concept. Does the fact you need 10 points to buy a book incentivise buying chunkier books?

@@annemuller9207 yes! This point system works for me because most of my unfinished series are super long (so multiple books before I get the 10 points) or ones where the final book only came out a couple years ago (so I wouldn't get the veteran points). If you need to adjust points to match your TBR, go for it! I will review mine month to month and see if any point rewards need rebalancing 😊
