That's a good idea.  I do something similar using Goodreads.com.  I use that web page a lot.  Before I get a book I look at the synopsis and the reviews.  It also keeps track of what I read and my rating.

 

Another thing I like about it is if you like an author you can click on their name and see what else they have written.

I was thinking the same thing. I have Bolded what I use Goodreads for, you can also go back to previous years and see what you have read as well. 

 

I am a big fan of Goodreads.

I am glad that you have found a system that works for you. I think that you are right and when you are no longer on this earth your daughter will appreciate having this part of you to hold near and dear.

I also have a record on my computer of the books I've read.

However, I remember years ago, when my mom died, I came across a recipe in her handwriting - I was so happy to see that.

I"m thinking that my daughter would feel the same way.

Handwriting is so much more personal than reading something on a computer.

Just my idea about things.

First, I'm surprised how many of you have a system. Secondly, I commend you all. Wish I had done something like that.
