I cant seem to stop. I wanna stop but every time I convince myself to read a few more books.
I have finished five seduction books in the past. Already forgot two of them since they were a few years ago.
Currently have another four books in the queue. A few days ago I ony had two books in the queue. I am afraid this will become 5 or 6 or 7 in a few weeks.
How do I stop "Just one more"?

You are putting a barrier between yourself and what you want.
Presumably you want to fuck girls.
You are using seduction books as a way to avoid meeting girls, probably due to fear of rejection and loss of social status.
The solution is to put your energies into meeting girls. You will never be ready. You will never know it all. You will never be perfect. Accept it and do it anyway.

1000% this. I was in a similar situation. You have to learn things on your own no matter how much you read about theory. Get out there and fail immediately

that's gold Matty.
OP is for sure using reading about gaming as a way to delay the actual start of gaming, probably because of an anxiety about failure.
The trick is to make a start. Just make a start. And de-risk the activity in your mind by taking all expectations of success away. Just tell yourself that you are going to chat to a few girls a day, and it doesn't have to lead to anything. Just de-sensitise yourself to the process, and you will become less anxious.
Think of it this way - what is your favourite video game? Lets say it was CoD - recall the first day you played - the first moment...you probably fell over and died in 10 seconds. It takes a little bit of repetition to be able to play CoD properly. The mistake would be to read dozens of books on how to play CoD really really well, and never actually play it. You need to play it, suck at it, not care about sucking at it, then get better at it.
Play, suck, improve.
thats the way forward.

Just take the leap of faith already and fuck up and get rejected a tonne, otherwise you'll be some stupid scholar on a mountain talking about theories this and theories that, without actually ever having backed any of it up. If you really want to truly understand seduction on an innate, natural level then you have to go and take those risks. You'll learn way more by doing so, and you won't hate yourself after either.

My "to read" queue is so long I forgot how long is it. But that doesn't stop me from doing cold approach. Treat books as training wheels and explanations, fortunatelly (or unfortunatelly depending on how you look at it) seduction can only be learned in the field.
As mattyanon wrote, you use books to shield yourself from rejection: one more book and then you'll be ready, right?
Do this instead: every night for next month go out for just half an a hour, no drinking or lounging - and purposefully get rejected. Act too shy, act too indecisive, ask for permission, ask if you can be her boyfriend, anything really as long as it gets you rejected.

Do you want to acquire women or not with the information you are learning from these books?
If the answer is yes, go apply the information. Reading "one more" won't do anything because you won't have applied any of it and thus none of what you read will be integrated. You'll just have a wealth of "what to do" information that will have no actual relevance when you're under the gun in an actual game approach because you never actually bothered to try it out.
And then guess what? You'll have to re-read the books you already read because now you need to see that part again because now you know what that concept looks like live but it didn't go the way it ought to have in your head so now you need additional clarification on that reading passage
You're not going to magically apply the book info. Reading a magic x number of these books is not going to automatically get you laid because suddenly you're a socially glib Chad who can react instantly to any woman you game
You'll be faced with an infinite amount of variance the books never taught you about: different personalities of girls you approach, the girl having a shitty day, the random friend fucking up your whole set, random strangers being distracting/annoying, the bad day you're having that's fucking up your own set, random bullshit, the fact that she's just about to leave, the unexpected response she gives that you bungle because you pre-planned two steps ahead and now the convo is different than expected and you walk away in hindsight knowing what you should have said
None of these books will teach you what you actually should have done in the moment when you look back at it. Experience will teach you that
Stop reading. Go get experience unless you have zero interest in getting laid with what you learned already
