tracking books.

Comments

Goodreads is a fun place to browse what others are reading, and I often put in what I've read (or what I WANT to read) over there. Plus, it's a way for me to keep up with the library books that I've read that I don't actually own.
I've got a Good Reads account but I haven't gotten around to adding any books. I love the concept. I just need to make myself sit down and update. :)
[this is good]
That's another good point, I am interested in a better way to track what I own and what I borrow, because right now, I don't have barely any of the things I own cataloged; just when I rewatch or reread them, I tag them as "shelves". They aren't as date sensitive unless I'm rewatching/rereading, so it's hard to fit it into the framework here on Vox!
I know that they are planning on adding extra date options for books you reread. Meanwhile, I just tag them as reread and make note of dates in my review.

Selfishly, I'd love for you to be on GR, because I like seeing what people are reading and what I might be interested in. It's hard for me to keep up with that here on Vox. I've always been a big reader, but like you, my friends didn't tend to read what I did. Now I get to share and discuss with people, and I look forward to that just as much as I do reading.
I'm glad you said your selfish preference, because that might be what throws me over the edge and makes me start recording them in both places. :) I may start with cataloging the books I own over there and also the new things I read from this point on.

I'm so anal that I'd really like a complete record, but it would take me so long to copy this whole year over there!

The more I think about this, the more fun I think it would be to see other books that people are reading who are reading similar things to me. I'm pretty good at just finding books that are similar, but I bet I'm missing some great things. :)
