I use a website called Good Reads http://www.goodreads.com to keep track of all my books. You have virtual bookshelves and you can add and rate books you have read and have a list of books you want to read. You can also read tons of reviews and see the ratings that other people have given books. I usually see books at the store, come home and look them up on the site and if the reviews are good enough, I add them to my "to read" list and then get them from the library. The site is so easy to use!

I just love being able to keep track of all the books I have read and want to read. Before I would write book titles on any piece of scrap paper I had in my purse and then I would forget and throw it away...never remembering it!

Thanks for the link, Amy. I'm like you- keep tiny slips of paper here and there from when I hear about a good book, especially if it's been on NPR. Then they get lost in eth truck!! :( I will definitely check this out. Could have used it when i bought THe Lace Reader. Good story but, gee whiz, did she have to use the "F" word through it? Grrrrrrr.
Oh, it's almost strawberry time. :)

This sounds wonderful! I have been trying to figure out the best way to save my favorite authors names. I was thinking of making a spreadsheet, now I won't have to do all that work!

Thanks for letting us know about this website Amy!
