The former is for books that I had to return to the library unread but am still interested in; the latter for ones I started and am not really interested in trying again.Clixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04460380696875928585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34218279.post-40681622313268946012010-06-03T23:05:05.915-04:002010-06-03T23:05:05.915-04:00Actually, when hearing of my mom's troubles wi...Actually, when hearing of my mom's troubles with memory (specifically of the books she finishes in a day or two), I decided to create an Excel file listing all the books I've completed. I started this list in highschool and have maintained it, and even added books I suddenly remembered having read waaay back when.

I can't count the times someone has asked me if I've read a book, and I say, "Yeah, but it's been so long that I've forgotten everything about it."

It was a very cool project and my professor said he really enjoyed my paper. But it was somewhat challenging remembering all of the books, poems, short stories (and plays, because I was also a Theater major) I read over those five years.<br /><br />My book club uses Good Reads as a way to communicate about our club activities and I've started using it to keep track of what I've read. I was able to make a facebook tab that links to my Good Reads profile and I also have an iPhone app for it.

However, I keep a written list of books in series that I need to buy to fill it in and then I read in the correct order. When I finish a book I place it on my 'read' book shelves. Books I have not read are arranged on my 'to be read' bookshelf and arranged in series order and by author. My reading tastes can be eclectic so I browse the 'to be read' shelves and select whatever appeals to me at the time. Once read it goes on the 'read' shelf.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34218279.post-45889147581534364982010-06-03T10:57:38.525-04:002010-06-03T10:57:38.525-04:00I keep stumbling across books on GoodReads that I ...I keep stumbling across books on GoodReads that I haven't read in years, so I usually use that to keep track. <br /><br />It also connects me with other people who've read it and their reviews. I'd be afraid of the "currently reading" tab, too, lol. If a book's not doing it for me, I won't always finish it. <br /><br />Thanks for introducing me to this app. I'll have to check it out!Tere Kirklandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13562750950130316280noreply@blogger.com
