Tsundoku
The Cambridge Dictionary defines this noun as the practice of buying a lot of books and keeping them in a pile because you intend to read them but have not done so yet also used to refer to the pile itself.
Origin:
A Japanese term now used in English, the word can be found in print as early as 1879, meaning it was likely in use before that. The word “doku” can be used as a verb to mean “reading” while the “tsun” originates in “tsumu” – a word meaning “to pile up”. So when put together, “tsundoku” has the meaning of buying reading material and piling it up.
Example:
I know that my tsundokus have unlimited patience
