I'm putting down hardwood on the second floor and a wall of new bookcases.

The downside is that the house is a mess. This is why I had to fly back from a perfectly decadent trip to Moscow yesterday. I'm having problems even accessing books with the furniture everywhere, much less reading them. I do think I can access and finish that book about religious persecution in Spain, and volume 2 of a 4-book series on writers under Stalin. But for now that's about it. I brought back 30 kg of books from Moscow, incidentally.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

I realized I needed to finish those books about Stalin and Soviet writers.

I seem to be reading too many things at once without finishing anything.

Well, that's one book finished at least - Anthony Trollope's "The Duke's Children".
