Hi there, I'm Frank, a husband and father old enough to have
read Stephen King's The Dark Half during its first printing.
This site began in 2012, when I realized I'd accumulated more
books than I could ever hope to finish. Worse still, I had books I
thought I'd read but couldn't remember. Clearly, I
needed a system. Fortunately, I'd already been keeping a movie log
for some time, so I had a solution.
New visitors should start with how I grade. Then browse my reviews, which are also indexed by author.
I also keep a reading log that tracks everything I read,
whether it gets a full review or not, complete with stats. At my age, remembering what
I've read is as important as the reading itself.
In an era of algorithmic recommendations consider this site a
human alternative—one person cataloging his personal library, one
book at a time.
