Okay, I've decided I'm going to stop reading books that I don't really like, and I'm not going to list those--just the ones I enjoyed or would recommend. So, starting over....

You can still list those books that you read and didn't like - I find that if I don't like a book- I stay away from that author. I sometimes reread a book like Pride and Prejudice - my favourite- if I have recently read a really bad book.

Yes, I understand I can list everything -- but I want to encourage myself to look for books I'm going to appreciate, not just "stuff" to fill up the list. I like your idea of reading an old favorite to offset a bad one. My listed books have all been new so far, but I have a big collection, and I plan to re-visit some of them during the year. I have a lot of Ellis Peters books saved up to read while I have some time off in a few weeks, and they are a combination of new and previously-read. (Woo-hoo, can't wait!)
