Who keeps track of the books that they've read? And why? I can think of better ways to spend my time.

- JoelSutherland 18y agoIt seems interesting and the ratio of recording the book to reading the book is favorable...
- tricky 18y agoErr... It takes about 5 seconds per book. You finish a book, you write it down. I've been doing this for years. Sometimes it is fun to look back and see all the books I forgot I read.
- kirpekar 18y agoEven simpler. You read a book, you shelve it in your home library. A new shelf/section every year.
- mnemonik 18y agoThats nice if you have the luxury of space and don't ever trade books in for credit at second hand stores. Sometimes its nice to pass a book on to someone else after you have read it.
- pg 18y agoI do. I heard in HS that some colleges asked for a list of what you'd read in the last year, so I started keeping track, and never stopped. The problem for me is that I rarely read books cover to cover anymore. Novels, yes, but you wouldn't read Gibbon that way.
