Does anyone keep a reading journal or blog? Maybe to keep track of what you've read or to post book reviews?

I had an LJ one essentially to keep track of the list of books I had left to read. I hardly ever update it which makes me feel guilty, but I have like no one on my friends list atm so it doesn't really matter >.>

There are some really pretty (physical) book journals you can buy. I'd never use it though so I've managed to resist buying one so far.

On a related note, is anyone doing the '50 books a year' thing?

I'm not good with journals, usually when I start one, it ends up abandoned pretty quickly. If I had a book journal it would be a bit repetitive though, since I'm known to re-read certain books I have fairly frequently.

Same here. I just can't keep up a consistent journal (of anything).

If I read a book and I have words to say about it I'll just log on to one of my many message boards and post my thoughts there.
