I track my TBR list is Excel and I have tabs for books I don't own, books I do own, review books, etc.<br /><br />For my personal library, I use Bookpedia for Mac. Here is where I only keep books that I own and have read. I'm always looking to improve my system.<br /><br />I'm impressed with how organized you are with yours!Shondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10430978671903519256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8136628.post-20240394113055521362010-03-01T13:53:37.177-06:002010-03-01T13:53:37.177-06:00Gavin - Excel is a great program to use as well, I...Gavin - Excel is a great program to use as well, I would use it if I didn't have access.
