I've read some books in my time, but sometimes I can't remember most -- if some -- of them.
Once I've finished a book, be it ficton or non-fiction, I generally put it down and that's it. I don't write anything, I don't blog about it. Not even a note.
I'm trying to change that. My girlfriend suggested writing a one-page appraisal of every book I finish. Since I recently just finished one, seemed appropriate enough.
It felt good. I think I'll remember it better and, even if I don't, it'll be there for quick consultation. I wouldn't recommend it as review for someone who hasn't read it and is looking for a recommendation: it's just a little something to remind myself what the book is about, if it's worth the read and what stood out the most for me.
What do you do once you've finished reading your book?
