Do you make a list of the books that you want to read or not?
Just the one i want to read
I have a pinterest board for Books to Read as well as Books I’ve Read.
I use Goodreads for that. My “to-read” shelf has….nearly 700 books on it (all that I personally own)
i have a mental list.
Yeah…always. On good read and every time I look at my bookshelf I’m like…”First I’ll read you…then you then you and then maybe I’ll read you” ????????
I sound like a cannibal ???
I need to, and I need to make it a real plan and carry it out.
Use Pinterest.
I track books on Goodreads.
Goodreads hahaj
Goodreads.
Goodreads and I’m always putting books I want to read on my wish list on Amazon too 🙂
I keep the list on my phone though it’s not comprehensive. There are more books on Goodreads but some of those are ones I’m not as thoroughly interested in.
Yes, I have a notebook for book I have read and also want to read 🙂
I have a very long list on Goodreads of books I’m interested in but I don’t keep a physical list. When book shopping I just try to find books that look interesting and sounds familiar
Yes, it is 4 pages long, I keep adding books
I use goodreads to keep a list ?
I have a notebook full of books to read!
I make a list of books I don’t want to read. So far, no entries :):):)
I keep a list of read and to-read book on Goodreads. I also keep a spreadsheet of the book series. This way I know how may books are in the series, which of the books I have read and notes on upcoming releases for that series. Yes… I am an ultra book nerd. ?
I have little lists laying all over.
My Amazon Wish List!??
And Goodreads want to read list 🙂
@Jenn I have that one–but I never look at mine!?
I find it a tiny bit easier. My amazon list is out of control. ?
Mine too! I try to delete stuff as I lose interest
Whew, I’m not the only one. Glad I’m in good company ?
I might right down a book i want to read. But i usually just go into the store and find something.
Yes. I had some personal lists and then found a few online websites that had lists that I wanted to use. I finally did a copy-and-paste onto a word documents (it’s very long) and had it printed and spiral-bound to keep as a reference. I’ll never get through it all in one lifetime, but it’s nice to have it there when I’m in the mood for a series or want more books by a particular author; I don’t have to go look it up online each time.
On Goodreads I do. Then when I’m at a bookstore I can ask about them.
My library has some kind of a wish list feature on its webpage that I need to learn more about.
i have a mental note. except sometimes i will stand in front of my bookcase and read whichever one jumps out at me
I have my wishlist saved on Barnes and Noble app. Gathered from many places
Mine are on Goodreads…
Yes .. I make a list.. euuhhmm several lists.. and stacks of books …
But in the end?? The books choose me.
I have a “need to read list” in word on my desk top. I just keep adding and subtracting.
o my gosh. i think it’s much easier to use excel..?
When I see a book I want I add it to my basket on Amazon ???? they can be in there ages!!!! Xxx
Yes, on GoodReads!
My Goodreads list is very long. I may never read all these books!
One list, are you kidding? I usually make for lists! 🙂
Yes, I write down books I hear about to look up later. I consider my TBR to only be books I already own, not books on this list.
Totally! But I also love finding books that aren’t on my list and usually end up reading those first 😉
Yes all the time I actually have a note book by author’s name…but this does not include books I own only ones I do not own…I actually add to it from posting on this sight…As a little girl I once said I wanted to read every book in the library – not a very realistic goal….One can dream….
I use my “Want to Read” shelf Goodreads for that purpose ?
Yes, i do *-* Always
I use Goodreads, or just get books that are next in the series I’m reading
Same setup here.
Yes!
No, the books are in a pile (s) in my reading room.
Yeah
I have a note on my phone so when I’m out at about I can pick one up ?
Yep, my Amazon wishlist (currently at over a thousand?).
1376 here ?
@Jenn It’s chronic,isn’t it? Must admit though – sometimes when I am too tired to read I trawl through Amazon looking for books to add to my tbr list! ‘People who bought ……..also bought ………’ is the start of many a rewarding hunt for books I might miss???
I keep a list on a flash drive. By author. If my library has it is highlighted on a certain color. When I finish it I input the date & highlight in another color.
Oh yes. On my laptop and hand written notebook kept in my handbag
Yes
Yes of course
yes I got a list with books I read and books I want 2 buy 😉
Lots of lists lol
Josie~~Yes! There’s an app called Google Keep, ❤️ it!
I have my TBR list on Goodreads.
I keep some pictures on my phone, plus a huge list on Goodreads.
Goodreads
Yes I do . I have a massive list . The never ending reading ? list .
Thanks everyone for commenting on my post I was wanting to start keeping track of all the books that I have read and didn’t know how to start. You all gave me some great ideas!
i have an excel spreadsheet of ones i own vs ones i want
its getting a bit long
@Amy wow that’s impressive
Never,I just read whatever interests me at the time.
Oh yes. I have a list on Goodreads, but actually, I have a list on Amazon too. I have a list for Kindle Unlimited books and a list of books that require purchase. ?
yes, I do
I think it is important to make that list. Long as it may get.
I couldn’t afford that much paper…..
no
I did when I was young and carried it in my wallet.
What reader doesn’t? Lol
Get good reads!
Yes! I just made my summer reading list too!
I used Goodreads to make my list 🙂 I lose papers lol
I add them to my Goodreads to-read list 🙂
I mark them as want to read on Goodreads too.
Goodreads ftw!
Public library and goodreads ??
Not normally, but I have seen alot of good suggestions here that I have started to make a list
Yes
App: to read
App: book tracker
Thanks! I will look them up!
yes: App: http://www.shelfjoy.com/
No. I buy the books I want to read. I now have enough to last me – well not even going to guess on that one. Probably until I die.
Yes I definitely do.
Use Goodreads it does it for you.
I have.
Goodreads makes it so much easier, I didn’t start making a written list till 14 years ago, I was trying to controll my book buying, if I finished reading so many books then I was allowed to buy some….I kinda failed that one.
I think a lot of us fail that one…kinda…?
Yes because I can’t keep track I have too many books I want to read? my tbr list will never end ???????lol
Yes and as long as forever
yes i do, then “order” them at my library online. I usually read 4-7 a week depending on the length
Yes. I make a list of what I’m readingh at the moment and one with all those I want to read when I’ve finished one. Except sometimes I’m too much in a hurry and I readthem at the same time. I usually have 4 to 8 books at a time.
My TBR on goodreads is out of control.
I’ve heard of other apps that create spreadsheets and such- I’ve been meaning to look into them but tbh goodreads is enough for me.
Oh and my tbr on my online account at my library. It’s also out of control.
Same here!
Maybe, sometimes. Mostly in my head. Lol
yes all the time
I have a list on good reads and a smaller one on my phone.
Yes
Yes.
I have a folder of every book I’ve read/bought. And because I like to write anything, I’ll just start over because I can! ? My other half just moans when I do that though because I used to buy new books everytime to re-start my lists ?
yes…I have an online list at Amazon, another on Goodreads and one more in Excel of all the books I’ve already purchased and not read yet…Let’s just say I have a looooong reading list…
Yes
I have a list of every book I’ve read since 2001
I do not use good reads, just a old journal.
My best friend used to keep a spreadsheet of all the books she had, but that was a husband and 2 kids ago
i doooo.
Yep.
Yes indeedy, every year!
That’s what my Goodreads it’s for
I keep a list of all the books I have read, mainly so I don’t buy them again thinking they’;re new!
Yes I use goodreads or sometimes I keep note of it in a reading journal
It depends on what book I see when I go to bookshops.
I don’t but my mother does
The miracle of bookshops is that the books u want show up when you look for them hahaha
Yes I do
Amazon’s Wish List is my list of books to be bought. Makes life – and gift-giving – so much simpler.
Yeah ✌ i already hv an account on goodreads ?
Yup.. on goodreads.
In my head…
Yes!
Yes, by month and year.
Yes!!!
I use Goodreads. I also will get samples on my Kindle. What I really need to do is stop finding new things so I can focus on all the ones I need to read that are purchased or borrowed from KU. Of course, I don’t see that happening…LOL!
I use my amazon wishlist for this LOL 😛
Yes.
Yes i got loads books wrote down to buy
Yes, and many are because of our chat site here.
yes
