I spent the last week or so working on a spreadsheet for my six reading challenges. This is my first six months of plans. Normally there wouldn‘t be date concerns, but with #Booked2018 being divided into seasons, I have targets to hit. Next I have to get it onto my iPad so I can refer to it anytime!

LauraBrook This is so amazing! Makes my list-loving heart happy! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @LauraBrook And they say massage therapists don‘t do technology! We do! At least list-related and book-related! 7y
erinreads Beautiful! I‘ve been working on my 2018 reading log spreadsheet, but I like the idea of combining all of the challenges into one sheet with all the planned books. 😍 7y
AmyG Wow! I am impressed, too. 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @erinreads Thanks. It‘s not that hard to add a column and then the prompts a book fulfills. Guess it depends on how you build your spreadsheet though! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @UwannaPublishme I used separate notes in an app called Notability this year. It worked pretty well, but I like this better. Paper would make me nuts because I‘m always checking stuff as I shop. 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @jhod @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @AmyG Thanks guys! Mr. B keeps a spreadsheet of his golf stats, so I guess it runs in the family. 😜 7y
jenniferw88 I'll post a pic of my spreadsheet tomorrow, but this is impressive! 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @BarbaraTheBibliophage much more interesting than golf stats! 😂 7y
LibrarianRyan Dammmmmmmnnn. I may need to do this. 7y
DivineDiana Goals! 👏🏻 7y
RebelReader I have to use spreadsheets too. Makes it easier for me to track. Especially since I've never participated in any challenges previously and now I'm doing six in 2018! 7y
CoffeeK8 Wow! I think I‘ll be doing this too! Great idea! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @jenniferw88 Thanks. Please tag me when you post yours—you might have some ideas for me to “steal!” 😘 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Riveted_Reader_Melissa For sure! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @LibrarianRyan It‘s right up your alley, and don‘t I remember that you‘re doing a zillion challenges? 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @RebelReader @CoffeeK8 It does make everything easier. I just decided to add another challenge (#LitsyAtoZ) because I found that my existing plans fulfilled all but four letters. I wouldn‘t have figured it out so quickly without the spreadsheet! (edited) 7y
LibrarianRyan @BarbaraTheBibliophage yep. Now I know what I am doing at work tomorrow. 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @LibrarianRyan Haha. Have fun!! 7y
TricksyTails LOVE! I love spreadsheets!! Yours is amazing! ?I've been trying to organize my reading challenges but have been having computer problems. Doing it on my phone has been such a headache. I may need to resort to pen and paper for now. Going to "steal" some of your ideas! ? 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @TricksyTails Feel free to steal! Hope you can get something down until your computer starts behaving. (edited) 7y
Pamwurtzler Wow! That is one amazing spreadsheet! 7y
emilyhaldi So impressed 😱👏🏻 7y
mrp27 Super impressive!! 7y
BarbaraBB I‘ve got one too; it‘s addictive. I keep adding and changing 😂 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @BarbaraBB It is addictive! I have stuff to do, but I want to sit down and plan instead. 🤪 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Pamwurtzler @emilyhaldi @mrp27 Aww shucks. Thanks! 🤓 7y
BookishMe I am using Google Keep (notes) to keep track of the titles for the #Booked2018 seasons and countries for #LitWorld2018GB ;D 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @BookishMe I used a notes program for 2017 but thought I try this instead. I have it in the cloud so I can review and modify on the go! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @laundry_piles Here‘s my #spreadsheet screen grab. You can also see how I listed times where I use the same book for multiple prompts. 🤓 7y
Gezemice Awesome! I love it! Normally I would jump on that but I am going to keep my options more open next year. I only read a third of the books I planned for this year... so I had to keep changing my lists, lol. 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Gezemice Thanks. I know what you mean about making changes. I only read one of the books I planned for LitsyAtoZ 2017. 🤪 7y
Gezemice @BarbaraTheBibliophage Lol, I guess I did better! I read at least half! :) 7y
Cinfhen That's amazing ❣️🙌🏻❣️ 7y
laundry_piles @BarbaraTheBibliophage ooo thank you! This is nice! Looks like I need to get to work :) 7y
