Reading

I learned to read when I was about 3 or 4. I got my first library card all my own about that same time.

I still have that library card number. The card has been through the wash and dry, but I stubbornly refuse to get a new one because they've changed their card system and told me I'd have to get a new number. No. The number is almost as old as me. I'm not memorizing a new 16 digit number. I learned my library card number before my driver's license number or my social. It's mine and you're not taking it away from me! You can't have it!

Oh! Sorry. Lost my head there for a moment.

Rating Books & Book Reviews

In the last few years I've attempted to stay on top of reviewing every book I read. Rating them too. I have a very complicated system that originally started relatively simple, created by G at Book Roast. Click Here for her most recent version video! 

In 2021, I took her Google Sheet and attempted to make it track what I wanted to track. In 2022, I found Addicted to Romance's version which exploded my understanding of Google Sheets. See her most recent tracker release here!

I combined the two and tweaked the ever loving crap out of it. I have a blank copy of the 2023 version in the side links. As of February 3, 2024, I am ensuring that the additional tweaks I made over the course of the year work before releasing the 2024 version. Next year I promise to have a 2025 version released before the end of the year. It's almost perfect.

I use a physical Reading Journal where I scrapbook my reviews and write them up for Goodreads and on Amazon where applicable. I am not on StoryGraph.
