Do you keep track of what and/or how many books you read? How long have you been doing this? What’s your favorite tracking method, and why?If you don’t keep track, why not?
I do have a method of record keeping… this blog! I keep track of the books that I read thanks to my reviewing every single one of them. I know the date I finished a book because I record it in the entry and on my actual ‘Books Read’ tally page. It really is enough for me. I hesitate to do anything more involved (though I would like to) because I realize two very important things about myself:
1.) I would likely never be able to make it completely perfect and suitable to my particular tastes.
2.) I would lag in updating it and it would become utterly useless.
Even though it’s a simple and small system, it works well enough for me. I can just go to my books read page and see a nice little cover display of everything I have read, am reading, and plan to read. If I want more information like my review and dates, I just click on the cover for it.
