Organization 101: Keeping Track of a Book Wishlist

I absolutely love to read, and I go through books like lightning. In order for me to never run out of books to read, I keep a list of all the books I want to read so when I finish one book, I can just go right on to another. The list I have that keeps track of the books I want to read is pretty organized, so I thought I would share my list with you guys!

Yes, it's called "The Maroon Notebook"... I made up that name when I was younger! Anyway, inside of this little notebook is numerous pages filled with book titles, just like the page above. Once I finish a book, I cross out the book in the notebook. The bracket shown above with the last four books on that page indicate that those books are a series. That way I won't read the books in a series out of order!

I'm very OCD about this list - I only like to read the books in order! Don't ask me why because I'm not quite sure... :-) I carry this notebook with me everywhere because I never know when I'll need to write down a book!

I've thought a lot of times about digitalizing my list, but I've decided not to. You can't just whip out a computer whenever you need to, right?! Also, what if my list somehow gets deleted? Then it's lost forever, and I won't know what to read!

I get the ideas of what to read from Goodreads, friends, blogs, etc. I don't buy my books because I read them so fast. I'll go into a bookstore and write down every book in there that I want to read, but I won't write them. I get all of my books from the library, which is why I love libraries so much!

So, do you like to read? How do you keep track of the books you like to read?
