Get UbuntuReview List
This is where I keep a diary of books I read. While I only maintain it for my own use (mostly to avoid buying books twice and to keep track of authors I've read), it costs me little effort and no money to publish it on the Web. Making it publicly available has also been useful as a spur to encourage me to keep it up to date.Usually the reviews will be positive or only somewhat negative. This isn't because I'm particularly easy to please, but because I'll only write entries for books that I actually finish. Since life is short, I won't grit my teeth and struggle on through a bad book, but will fling it aside -- often with great force -- and move on to something better. (This is why I've only read about 100 pages of Anne Rice.)
You can browse the list by title (full listing), author (full listing), subject, or in chronological order. There's also an index of recommended books.
