Because I have the trouble of too many lists. Too many places listed, I don't even look at them. THAT'S not any help, now is it?

There's List of Bests, Goodreads, and iRead.

I... have a bookshelf. sweatdrop A literal bookshelf. 6 feet of shelf space, all double stacked as tall as they can go. And then I have boxes. Several boxes, around a cubic metre, full of books I own but haven't read.

All books I own but haven't read are tagged "unread" in my LibraryThing.

I have a folder of bookmarks full of amazon.ca pages of books I want to read but don't (yet) own.

I keep an actual written list in the desk in my room.
Then since I am usually reading multiple books at once, I'll pile them under the table in our living room, much to the annoyance of my parents. sweatdrop

On Facebook. Although, I don't keep up with it like I should.

In my head. You can find my "Books that I need to own" list there, as well. although I would like to have an actual physical list or an electronic one, at least.

HAH. I've made no such list, because I know I wouldn't keep up with it. I'm always getting distracted from my to-read pile by something new. I just kinda keep a whole bunch of books around and hope I get to them one day. It's really quite dangerous, because if I borrow a book, it automatically gets assimilated unless I make a special note to keep it separate from everything I own - I actually have had two books and a music score checked out from the library all semester. sweatdrop

I don't actually make a list, I just go to the bookstore and pick out books that look good or I heard was good. I'm pretty good at reading books one at a time.

I have a list of books to buy (some of which I have already read) in a box on my bookshelf, and then a list of books to read (which I have already bought or borrowed) sitting on a shelf further down. For some reason, both lists keep growing... wink

Psh... I'm not as organized to write it down. I keep it in my head and then pretty much put all the books I remember on hold, then put them in order by when they're due back.

Sometimes I'll write down authors and books in random places, which means I usually can't find the titles/authors again, and then there's my memory, which isn't to good. The books I and my sister have fill a bookshelf, then the library books take up a good shelf or two usually, then in the basement there is a small storage room with several shelves of books. I've read most of these, but will go to one of these places to try to find a book to read if I have none.

I have this weird organizational system for my books, although I keep my lists in my head... But having them organized does help, especially if I need to know which books I'm missing from a series.

If I have a list it'd probably be in my bubblegum-case-turned-money-box!Lol!
I don't look at it much though, I'm scared of new authors... XD

I don't have a list. I recieved 21 books for Christmas and I still haven't read all of them. I think I might have a list of it in my head. But I can't tell you what I haven't read off the top of my head right now.

I should make a list somewhere, but I haven't.
I'd rather take it one book at a time anyway.
