It makes sense to put together a reading list.  I'm going to take some of from your list and add them to mine.

Thanks Auntg.  I've been keeping a list for years now and am also on Goodreads.  I started it because I would take my list to the library.

Everytime I go to the paperback exchange, I take my pages-long list by author of the books I have read so that I don't " buy " a book I have already read.

 

Your reading lists could be marked in a special way to accomplish the same thing.

I only put books on my paper list that I haven't read so it's easier to look for books that I want to read.

@jlkz, I am famous for forgetting titles of books I have read.  I read so much it is hard to keep straight.  I am author driven in my reading so that doesn't help either.  I love my ereader but I find it makes remembering titles even harder as you don't get to see the cover every time you pick up the book.

 

I am on Goodreads but a I confess I am not very diligent about keeping my list up to date.  Maybe this fall/winter I will get more structured!  LM

@SWEET how did I read Fear of Dying last October when it's just coming out next month? That seems very odd. By the way, I really enjoyed it, although not as much as many of her other books from way back when.

 

I have to go over your whole list and see what I can find. I notice you're reading way more non-fiction than you ever did before. Good for you!

Fear of Dying is coming out in PB.  When I do my list if it comes out in HB, I'll change it to PB when it does.

 

Good eye re nf.  I used to have very little nf on my list and I guess more of it interests me now.
