Dear Self, Stop Buying Books and Go to the Library!!!

Most of my TBR lists include a bunch of books I already own but I have to remind myself it's ok to let those be and take a trip to the library! It will probably help with my frequent reading slumps. Here are 100 books I do not own but are high on the TBR list.
