Luthien Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Half the year is already over, but I've decided to start a reading log here anyway. Since I have a great software with which I keep track of all the books I bought and read it won't be a problem to backtrack the first couple of months of 2010. So, here's the list of what I've read so far this year: January -Hard eight/Janet Evanovich -The taking/Dean Koontz -Shades of midnight/Lara Adrian -Smitten/Janet Evanovich -Timeline/Michael Crichton -The last Templar/Rhaymond Khoury -Bed of roses/Nora Roberts -Written in bone/Simon Beckett -Watermind/M.M. Buckner February -The darkest evening of the year/Dean Koontz -Die Insel/Charlotte Link (don't think this has been published in English) -It must be love/Rachel Gibson -The Crucifix killer/Chris Carter -The collected poems of William Butler Yeats/W.B. Yeats -Sign of the cross/Chris Kuzneski -Visions of sugar plums/Janet Evanovich -Jurassic Park/Michael Crichton -The mailman/Bentley Little March -Blutportale/Markus Heitz (don't think this has been published in English) -Superfoods, superfast/Michael van Straaten -Touching evil/Kay Hooper -Kindred in death/J.

Kylie Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Wow, and I thought I had bought a lot of books! Do you mind if I ask what software you use to keep track of your reading? Happy reading! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthien Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Wow, and I thought I had bought a lot of books! Well, I've been a little too enthusiastic buying books this year. Do you mind if I ask what software you use to keep track of your reading? I use "BookCook", which is a great (and cheap) programme. I used to have an excel list, but only with the book titles so I wouldn't buy a book twice, but then I heard about BookCook and immediately bought it. Here's a screenshot: It's especially great since it not only shows you each single book, but shows lots of statistics with one click. I've only had it for six months, but I wouldn't want to miss it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Thanks Luthien. It looks interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankie Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Wow Luthien, that's a lot of books you've bought this year, I'm well impressed! By the looks of it you don't have any trouble reading that lot by the end of this year, though. Happy reading! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Andrea~ Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Hi Luthien What did you think of The Taking? I read it last year and really enjoyed it although I know a lot of people didn't like the ending. That's a huge haul of books you've bought there! Hope you find time to read them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
