I like to take a quick look back at the books I've read over the year to see what I've read and which are my favorites. I also like to see what direction I'm trending in terms of how many fiction and non-fiction books I'm reading as well as how many books by men and women. I started this when I realized I was being sexist with my reading--reading significantly more books by men than women (even though I am a woman) because I unconsciously placed more importance on books by men. I have since rectified that problem.
