If you do one column for author's last name, one for their first name, the title, date, or whatever else you care to keep track of, you can sort by author or date, etc. That way you can see what you have read by each author without having to go through your entire list. It works really well for me.Thomas Hogglestockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14284352537015457974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2203825390310863045.post-24231933627095313932010-02-02T17:45:35.156+00:002010-02-02T17:45:35.156+00:00You've missed off The Passion of New Eve...
I...You've missed off The Passion of New Eve...<br /><br />I will never cease being amazed by how much you manage to read a year; a month in some respects makes me feel worse as another month or so like that and you will have read more than I did last year! It's quality over quantity though and there are some good books on that list.<br /><br />I make similar abbreviations in my notebook for Viragoes; Persephones; Non Fiction; rereads; in translation (usually I'll write language of origin).<br /><br />I'm looking forward to reading your future posts on Lorna Hill; I have such warm memories of her books.<br /><br />I need to read more Elizabeth Von Arnim as she's simply wonderful.Paperback Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14579608422235511054noreply@blogger.com
