This. And how did I miss this thread for 6 months, anyway?

Probably, you could use the "want to read" function in GoodReads to keep track of books you want to read... ;)

Does it come with a "good intentions" function?

Works for me. Problem is one's 'Want To Read' list gets so long.

Yeah, my "want to read" list here on GR is so huge that it's actually kind of useless, and I don't even check it anymore... oops. Mostly I load my Kindle with library books, so not too many at once. But the ones I've bought or picked up on free days or whatever can definitely sit there and molder for years.

I still haven't picked up anything by Maugham. I wonder if, through some cosmic something-or-other, I'm not meant to?
