I like looking thru the different Book Lists that are posted here on PBS.  I have 2 right now - I need to start one for my Favorite Romance books!  =)

Do you have a Book List?   Please post their Titles, I would love to see them!

I have two lists.  One is a list I kept for wishlist buddy swaps but since I haven't played in a long time it doesn't really do anything right now.  The other list is my available wishlist books.  This list has books that are on wishlists but I haven't sent out.  I keep it in hope that people will look at it and order multiples which will help my mailing budget.

I have a "pending bookshelf" book list but haven't worked on it for a while and will probably delete it at some point. The 'why' I originally set it up has sort of faded away and I see no use for it; having a pending bookshelf list seemed to be self-defeating: either I post the book or not and since I've put myself on vacation hold since the end of November the list is pointless.

I'm just not a book list maker I guess.  I have no desire to make a booklist or look at other people's booklists or be one of those people that count all the books they read in a year and list them.  I forget that booklists are even an option.

The only list I keep up with is my TBR pile list so I can easily tell what books I have available to reveal in games.

I will take a look at everyone's list!  I think they are interesting, and I always find books that I want to read!

Thanks!

Not really.  I just use Goodreads for that.

I have my real book lists at LibraryThing, my reading list and my book collection list. They're pretty much for my use only and I, too, don't read others' lists as a rule.

All my books are on Goodreads as well. I don't list books anywhere else.

I have a few....

My Available Multiple WL Books

My TBR List  <~~ This list isn't nearly as long as my actual TBR list but many of these are WL so I use it to hopefully get people to see what I have that they may want from me so I can send them with other WL books to save on shipping.

I also have a list of unpostable books that are either WL and/or aren't in the PBS system:
Unpostable Wish List

And this last list is just for me for my books I've read this year (I sometimes use it to go back & write reviews later):
Books I've Read in 2012

I maintain only two lists for available wishlisted books, with one being more active than the other. I used to spend way too much time on the "Is This on Your Wishlist" romance forum, and I've found having these lists is a good compromise as it helps me control my postal spending and from acquiring too many books in my TBR pile. But I still like to check out my friends' lists periodically to see if they have something I want. I  was with Goodreads for a short time, but I never really felt the love for that site.

WL'd Romance/Erotica Offered

Just an "Available Upon Request" list.  I try to add books to it as I finish but am currently backlogged.  First time I put a link out I ended up sending out about 40 of the 80 books so that was good but too much traffic at one time:LOL:   Wasn't prepared for the volume of pms:)   Watch link is through my profile--more paranormal than romance when I get to adding again.   I'm working on my series hoarding issues and am learning to let go so you'll occasionally find lots of complete or partially complete series.  I really need to add about 40+ so maybe I'll jump on that next week.
