The Book Project
I know this is a little bit of a "Welcome to My Home On The Web" kind of a thing, but it's more to help me keep track of my reading progress than for the world at large. Someone, somewhere may be interested, though. So what I'm doing is keeping track of all the books I've read, starting with April 2001 [you don't honestly think I have the urge to go back and list all the books I've ever read, do you? That'd be insane.] and ending whenever I get bored of this. Books I have finished reading will look like these words here, and books that I am currently reading will look like these words here. The list will be organized by author, and then by the order of the book either being published [in the case of a series], or in the order I read it [in the case of books not in a series].
