Reading History

I keep this ledger for three reasons.

  1. It is a good method of remembering the past. Time is a relative and books present a fairly good method of remembering "eras" of one's life.

  2. Seeing my past progress inspires me to continue reading.

  3. Keeping a virtual bookshelf makes it easier let go of physical copies.

For pleasure

Engineering

For books relating to my profession, I don't like tracking exactly when I've read them. Perhaps because I reference them over a longer period of time, whereas fictional books I usually only read once? So expect a lot of dates to be missing. There's also a much larger gap here for STEM-related books since I only tracked leisurely reading during University.
