Goodreads thinks I read four books this year

Which tells you how good I've been at keeping up to date on my book log... I really need to spend some time over the break to at least list the books what I have read, even if I'm not going to manage comments on most of them. Alas, I forgot to pack my ergonomic keyboard, so not a huge amount of typing is going to get done before I get home. The new computer's keyboard is nowhere near as good a temporary stopgap as the ThinkPad's was, and I really need to find out how to temporarily turn off the touchpad.

I got briefly enthused by Goodreads and posted the books I was reading and did some reviews. Then the OU Children's Literature course happened and I actually burned out on reading and seriously burned out on writing about what I had just read.

But that was a few years ago and I've been thinking that I should return to Goodreads, if only to better track which of the Kindle books on my iPod I have read and which I haven't.

My primary book catalogue is at LibraryThing anyway, but I do try to mirror at GoodReads if possible. I really need to do better at updating though, if only because I've bought so many ebooks recently that I don't know what I've actually got. I've just gone through the sale at BVC and realised that I haven't even downloaded some stuff I bought recently, let alone catalogued it.
