# Reading List Index
Once upon a time I read somewhere that smart people take notes about the books they read. Being somewhat of an egomaniac I also like to be able to track how many books I've read and how long it took me to finish them. Lastly, it took me three chapters once to realize I was reading a book I'd already read a long time ago.
This will be the index page that ties together all my reading list documents for the books I've read.
I'm trying to create a workflow for reading (is that too much? Am I making reading a job? Nah.) When I decide to read a book, I'm going to create a note (with the below template) and Update [GoodReads](https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/61550335?ref=nav_mybooks). Once finished I will update with my thoughts/review/highlights and update Goodreads.

That's not too much, is it?

I work for OverDrive and have long been only a casual fan of Libby. I am hoping to change that since I've spent years looking for a cross-platform reader that allows me to highlight, take notes and sync between the web, phone and tablet and have only found Libby. ReadEra is awesome for books I own and it does sync between the phone and the tablet, but has no web interface. Besides, Libby lets me sample books and helps me discover new books. Lastly, the audiobooks interface on Libby is first-class. I need to listen to more books, too.
