If you know what NAMI is you can imagine the hard time my wife and I are having with our youngest, who turns out has BPD. They are med non compliant as is their partner the best we can tell.

The Skeptics Guide to the Universe, A Swim in a Pond in the Rain, and I Hate You - Don't Leave Me would all have made the top list if I didn't have an arbitrary limit of only two top books a month.

That said most of the books I read in February I loved. For the complete list:

Top:

• Rules of Estrangement by Joshua Coleman PhD
• Stop Walking on Eggshells for Parents by Randi Kreger and Christine Adamec

Great:

• Stop Walking on Eggshells by Paul T. Mason MS, Randi Kreger
• Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die by Chip Heath and Dan Heath
• The Skeptics Guide to the Universe by Steve Novella, Bob Novella
• A Swim in a Pond in the Rain by George Saunders
• The Bipolar Disorder Survival Guide by David J. Miklowitz
• I Am Not Sick I Don’t Need Help! by Xavier Amador
• How To Become CTO by Aleks Kudic (Recommended by: Aleks Kudic (Asked to read for review purposes by the author)
• Babylon’s Ashes by James S. A. Corey
• I Hate You - Don't Leave Me by Jerold J. Kreisman, Hal Straus
• Nemesis Games by James S. A. Corey

Good:

• Notes on a Small Island by Bill Bryson
• Spook by Mary Roach

Okay:

• Traction by Gino Wickman

1. Do you track your books with Bookwyrm or Goodreads?
2. Where did you find "How to become CTO"? It seems that I can only preorder it.
3. Thanks!

I believe the author sent it to @one_old_coder@piefed.social, if i understood correctly what he wrote.

You're right, I skipped the sentence where it was mentioned to be a review. Thanks.

I don't use either to track my books. Good ol Google Sheets. I've tried Office Libre and just don't like it. It's fairly manual but I've been doing it for over 20 years and it works for me.

As for the book I'm pretty sure it's just self published via Amazon. https://a.co/d/0iTS78gy

And you're welcome!

Ever tried StoryGraph? I started using it a few months ago and really like it.

I've looked at it but decided against it. Not that it's bad but it doesn't track nearly enough of the data I use and then I'd have to port some of the data over and it's just not worth the hassle to me.

What do you track? In a notebook I just write title, author, and when i read it.

• when I read it (each time)
• how many times I read it
• if I did a book review, when
• a tracking column for a pivot
• category of book
• how good I thought the book was
• priority to read (completed and to read and reread are all on the same list)
• sub category of book
• title
• author
• how long I think it'll take me to read it
• some data on the author
• when I added to the book the list
• and some calculated columns for the pivot table

I know, too much.

Hah! No, I'm just curious. That makes a lot more sense if you're writing articles and reviews, too. Thank you for satisfying my curiosity!

You're welcome!
