Do You Track What You Read?
/
Happy New Year! Do you track of what you read? I do to keep up with series that I like, and to preserve a record by year of what I’ve read because once or twice I’ve bought or checked out a book that I didn’t remember reading.
I use Goodreads to keep a log of what I’ve read with their annual reading challenge. Years before the site, I started with a list in a Word document that I could search. There are many good sites and applications out there to record your reading progress.
The reading challenge helps me see my stats at the end of the year. Goodreads creates a nice graphical summary with my details.
It helps remind me to leave a review when I finish a book.
I share what I’m reading in my author newsletter, and it helps me to keep that organized by month.
And I just like data. I can compare what I’ve read during different years and see fun facts like the longest and shortest books.
What do you use to track your reading progress?
