Also greatly enjoyed reading the replies. I’ve done some tracking on paper, some online, but nothing consistent. I believe consistency matters more than whatever format one chooses. Many of your respondents inspired me to give it another go.

Would you be willing to email me your Excel file for keeping track of your books??? This sounds like what ‘ve been wanting to do with mine. I would really appreciate it. I know Excel but not this well. If the columns & sorts & such are already done & all I have to do is fill in the cells with my books that would be a huge help. Thanks! :)

Say I am reading the Sookie Stackhouse Southern Vampire Series by Charlaine Harris (the books the TV show True Blood is based on). If I am new to the series I want to know what order to read the books in. Once I find the order of the list I still want to keep track of the ones I’ve read.

So what method is best for not only keeping track of the order of my series books but also where I am in the series & what comes next???

I wanted a solution that wouldn’t take much time so I simply go to google, search for a picture of the book cover, and then I copy that picture into a word document. Next to the picture I will write down when I read the book and I have it listed in chronological order. Fast and efficient in my opinion :)

I’ve been thinking about how Excel can make charts and how fun that would be to play with. I like your seasonality chart. I will have to try something like that myself :)
