Reading List
Knowledgeweight 1tracker · keeps what you put in
The pile on the nightstand has become architecture, and the recommendations keep arriving. Reading List keeps it civil: each book, whether it's to read, being read, or finished, and notes for what it left behind. Years from now, the notes column is the part you'll be glad you kept.
This is not a screenshot. It's the real tool, running right here — go on, put something in it.

Questions people ask
How does the Reading List track my books?
Each book gets a status — to read, reading, or finished — and a notes field for thoughts, quotes, or verdicts. Moving a book to 'finished' is a small private ceremony.
Is this better than a book-tracking social app?
Different, mostly. No ratings crowd, no recommendations engine, no profile — just your books, your statuses, and your own notes, which some readers consider the entire point.
Where is my reading list stored?
In one HTML file that runs offline in your browser and belongs to you forever. No account, no server, no algorithm learning your taste — the list never leaves the page.
