Read All About It: Goodreads.com

Fellow avid readers - how do you keep track of your "to read" lists? I've written lists on scraps of paper, torn pages out of magazines and scribbled in notebooks.

The best tool I've found is goodreads.com. This site allows me to keep track of the books I've read and the books I want to read. It also allows users to customize their own "shelves," so I could keep track of books I own, books I've lent, books related to movies I want to see, etc.

There's also a social aspect to Goodreads. I can share my reading list with "friends," connect with Facebook, join groups with similar interests, "fan" and read blog posts by authors.

Even better, through the First Reads feature, I can enter to win prerelease copies of books from authors and publishers. I've received several - nothing beats a free book!

I haven't even begin to explore half of what the site can do, but it's certainly met my needs for keeping track of my reading habit.
