Reading lots of books about the Gospel According to Mark to write an essay on the Feeding of the Four Thousand. It's part of my GDip in Theology.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I see that a few here like me have lots of books.

I recommend the free app (Android, may be iPhone) called My Library (the icon has a stack of books).

You can scan the barcode, or type the ISBN.

I the book isn't in there then you can manually add the book, you can add a catorgory for each book to make a search easier.

You can export to a spreadsheet file.

I currently have 1042 books with another 600 to add, but they are pre ISBN so I will need to add all the details manually.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I use Zotero to keep my book details in as it also produces citations for my essays. As long as you don't store extracts the free tier will work fine.
Add entries by ISBN or other references for papers, articles etc.
Use the browser plugin and if you find the title on Amazon you can add it from there.
Add articles, web pages and so on.

*Amazon First Reads, so got to read it before it’s on general release - burnt through it in a day

Re: What are you reading?
 

And I’ve just burned through the first six books in the series, with two more to go…

(Off to a wedding in Northumberland tomorrow, Monday & Tuesday, where I’m the best man, so my reading rate may drop a bit…)
