Where Can I Track And Organize Names Of Books To Read Across Formats?

Switching between my Kindle, audiobook apps, and library borrows has my TBR list totally chaotic—need a single place to track everything.

Let's be real, my system is my email inbox. I email myself links or titles with the subject line 'BOOK: [Title].' When I'm looking for something new, I search 'BOOK:' in my email. When I read one, I archive the email. It's a mess, but it's a mess that lives everywhere I do. Sometimes the lowest-friction method is the one that actually gets used, even if it's not elegant.

I use a private WordPress blog. It's overkill, but I love it. I have a category called 'To Read' where I make a draft post for each book I hear about—just the title and author, maybe a link to a review. When I read it, I publish it as a post with my thoughts. It's a chronological, searchable, permanent record of my reading life. I own all the data, and it's formatted exactly how I want.

The biggest gap I've found is tracking a book I want regardless of format. I might want to read it physically, listen to it on a road trip, or get the ebook if it's on sale. So my solution is Trello. I have a board with lists: 'Want', 'Acquired', 'Reading', 'Read'. Each card is a book.

I use the label feature for formats (green for audio, blue for ebook, etc.) and can add comments on where I found it or when the library hold is due. The visual, drag-and-drop interface feels satisfying and keeps the list from becoming a static, intimidating column of text.

My method is seasonal. At the start of each season, I sit down and curate a shortlist of 5-7 books I'd like to get to. I write this list on a nice piece of paper and stick it on my fridge. This is my committed TBR. Any other book I hear about and want to read gets jotted in the back of my current book's pages as a footnote. The seasonal list keeps me focused, and the footnote list captures passing whims.

I'm a huge fan of using Readwise for this, especially if you highlight a lot. It integrates with your Kindle, Apple Books, and even physical books (via photos of pages). It consolidates all your highlights and notes. Part of its system is tracking the books you're reading and have read. It's more of a knowledge management tool for readers, but the side effect is a beautifully clean, private log of your reading journey across all formats.

How should I track my favorite books of all time across formats?

I use Apple Notes with checklists. I have a note called 'The Pantheon.' Each entry is formatted as: [ ] Title by Author (Format: P/E/A). When I'm considering a re-read or recommending to a friend, I can glance at it. The checkboxes are satisfying to mark if I re-read in another format. It's bare-bones, syncs across all my devices, and is searchable. It lacks analytics, but sometimes you just need a clean, simple list that's always in your pocket.

I use the 'collections' feature on my Kindle and in Audible. On Kindle, I have a collection named '★★★★★' (five stars). On Audible, I have a playlist named 'Masterpieces.' This is the simplest possible method—using the native tools of each platform to highlight the best-of-the-best within that format. The downside is fragmentation, but maybe it's okay that my audiobook favorites live separately from my ebook favorites. They are different experiences.

I use a combination of the library app Libby and a physical notebook. Libby tracks all my digital borrows automatically. For physical books, I write the title on a sticky note and slap it on the inside cover of my notebook. When I finish, I write a short note next to the sticky. It's a hybrid system that accepts my mixed-media reading reality without forcing me into one rigid digital platform. The chaos works for me.

Does anyone else just use a dedicated private Twitter (or whatever it's called now) account or a Instagram 'Finsta' for this? I created a Twitter account just for book thoughts. I tweet the cover when I start, maybe a few thoughts in a thread while reading, and a final rating and review when I'm done. I use specific hashtags like #ReadOnline or #WebNovel. It's social and feels alive. The character limit keeps my thoughts concise. Scrolling back through the profile is a perfect timeline of my reading journey. It's free, it's built for quick updates, and it's surprisingly fun.

Tracking books can be such a joy if you find the right method that fits your vibe. I personally love using Goodreads because it feels like a social network for book lovers—you can rate, review, and even join discussions. The yearly reading challenge keeps me motivated, too. For something more private, I’ve also tried Notion templates. You can customize columns for genres, ratings, or even quotes you loved. It’s like having a personal library spreadsheet but way prettier. And if you’re old-school like me, a physical journal with doodles and sticky notes has its own charm. There’s something about flipping through pages filled with handwritten thoughts that feels irreplaceable.

I just use a spreadsheet. It's not as pretty, but I control every column. I track date added, source, priority, genre, page count, and even an estimated time commitment. No app gives me that level of detail for free. A CSV file never tries to sell me anything or show me ads.

I use a custom Discord bot in a server I share with just one other friend. We each have a text channel. We write commands like or . The bot updates a Google Sheet in the background. We can ask the bot to see what we're each reading. It turned tracking into a playful, shared game with a light competitive edge to see who logs more chapters.

Is there a way to track books read across multiple platforms?

8 Answers2025-08-15 15:13:03
Tracking books across multiple platforms feels like herding cats—doable if you’re strategic. I’ve juggled Goodreads, StoryGraph, and even random notes in my phone for years. The key is finding a central hub. Goodreads is the obvious choice since it’s social and integrates with Kindle, but it’s clunky. I sync my Kindle reads automatically, then manually add library books or physical copies. StoryGraph is sleeker for stats like pacing or mood, but lacks Goodreads’ social buzz. For hardcore organizers, apps like Notion or spreadsheets work. I once color-coded mine by genre and DNF status—overkill, but satisfying. Some folks use LibraryThing for its cataloging depth, though its interface feels ancient. The real headache is audiobooks; platforms like Audible don’t always sync. I’ve resorted to screenshots of my listening history. It’s messy, but until someone invents a universal book-tracking API, we’re stuck patching systems together.

What apps help manage a list of books I read?

I can't recommend 'Goodreads' enough. It's like a social network for book lovers, letting you catalog your reads, set yearly challenges, and even join discussions. The app's scanning feature is a game-changer—just snap the ISBN, and boom, it's added. For a more minimalist approach, 'StoryGraph' is fantastic. It focuses on analytics, breaking down your reading habits by genre, mood, and pace. I love its 'DNF' (Did Not Finish) feature, which keeps my shelf honest. If you're into aesthetics, 'Notion' is flexible enough to create a personalized reading tracker with templates. Lastly, 'LibraryThing' is a hidden gem for cataloging, especially if you own physical copies and want to organize them like a pro.
