Wow, you're almost done Anne!

If you use the "currently reading" function on Goodreads, it makes it very easy to find out when you read a book. The site will log your start and finish dates, and then you can go to your shelf and list books according to the order that you read them in.

I find fantasticfiction.co.uk the biggest help in tracking down authors/titles and the chronology of series.

Oh, lol, no I didn't mean series order, but rather keeping track of what books you read and when. When you start reading something you can switch the book to the "Currently-reading" tag and then it will appear on the side of your homepage. You can update with the page you're on if you like, and then click "I'm finished" or just use the "Read" tag when you're done.

Nice Anne almost done!
