The Reading Log

Way back in the 80's I used to track the books I read. The tracking was crude to say the least. For books that I kept in my library I simply noted the date read on a slip of paper and kept that slip of paper in the book. For books that were not being kept in my library, I would make a note in one of my notebooks...

Over the years my notebooks have gone missing. I now have no record of when I read what. The slips of paper , for the most part, still exist, but they are faded and are crammed full of notes for my readings.

The other day I decided I'd try starting a new reading log. This time I thought why not make the log something that others could look at and review (why anyone else might be interested in my reading habits is an unknown). I came to the decision that a simple Blog format would work well for my Reading Log. My posts won't be fancy. They won't be extensive reviews. For the most part I'll simply list what I've read along with the date I completed the book. I'll also try and add some summary information about the book. I read all types of books, so who knows what you will find here...
