I do write a few titles down if I really want to read something. But mainly just search online until I see something that looks interesting.

Santa keeps a list. 8)

And I have to buy everything electronically, so Amazon keeps up with what I already have for me. :)

Once a year I go to the massive library book sale where I get a lot of my books. I usually take a couple pictures of my bookshelf area of books I haven't read yet and consult my phone while I'm browsing to make sure I don't buy the same ones twice.

I use to write down all my to-get books, but now i'll just add it to my Goodreads app on my phone. It's way more convenient and you have access of it 24/7.

I definitely have a "wish list" of books that people recommend to me or I find on social media or at the book store. I wish I could buy all the books that interest me right away, but unfortunately, I can't. So I keep a list of books I want so I can slowly build my collection.

You know it! I keep a composition book in my messenger bag along with 2 books plus my Kindle. I don't leave home without the essentials. Life is Fun, but Reading is Serious :)

Though I like the idea of keeping a list, its not for me. Anytime I am near a bookstore, I simply start browsing and buying books which catch my interest.

I've never done a list before. If I hear about a book I may enjoy, or someone recommends a book to me, I immediately look it up. If it catches my attention, I'll read it. Otherwise, I won't think about it unless it happens to come up again.

No, no list. I frankly buy most books online and lots of the "standard reading" books -- the latest mystery novel, etc, via Kindle.

My list would change all the time anyway, depending on my current mood, and it would be super long, too. My desires far exceed my budget. Sigh.

Latest Review: "Night of the Chupacabra" by Michael Hebler

Post by Meg0169 »

I usually write a note in my phone or have a list open of the series I am reading so that if I find the next book I can pick it up. But I definitely have had a purse full of post it notes and scarps of paper with book titles on it. I tend to borrow from the library rather than buy new though.

I predominantly shop online where the websites have a "wishlist" section, however, I carry a Kikki K planner with me everywhere I go. I carry the planner with me because i'm so bad at utilizing my time and you need to do that when you work over 40 hours a week..
In my planner I do have a 'TO READ' section, so I guess that counts!
