(no subject)

For 2016 I decided to start using Goodreads to keep track of my reading, but I have to say I don't think it's for me. I don't really want any of the social bits with recommendations or leaving reviews, and so it doesn't actually add anything better than keeping a list in lj as I've been doing lo these many years (11 years!). I only really want to have a record of books read. What would be good is if I could look at it and say "tell me how many women I read last year", and "how many African writers have I read" to try and broaden my reading. Since I've just been using goodreads to add books read, and indeed things I've read in my life, I can't imagine other people are much enjoying my use of it as they'll have large dumps of books with no information in their feeds of me. Anyway. January books:
