In an effort to clean up my reading list, this page catalogues papers that caught my eye but that I never got around to reading.

I’d love to read all of these some day; like I said, they caught my eye at least once before. But, being realistic with myself, I think it’s important to accept that I can’t get around to everything; I have limited time and energy. Rather than maintain an indefinite list of “laters,” I choose to put these papers to rest on this page.

I liken this to closing my browser tabs. If something is truly engaging, I’ll come back to it later. But for now, I am accepting that I have no plans to read these, as great as they probably are.
