How do you keep your TBR list? Do you have a special notebook to write them down? Do you use a wish list (like from Amazon.com)? Do you just keep them in your mind?
I look them up on Amazon and bookmark the link to the page. I have a folder in my bookmarks for my "to read" books.
I also have a little notebook that I have them in -- it's just my everything notebook though so it's nothing special.
How about you?

I have a TBR list typed out in a word document on my computer as well as a printed out hard copy. I have the books listed in alphabetical order because I'm just that picky about being organized, but also so it's easier to look through. I also highlight the books I've read when I'm done reading them.

There are so many that I want to read that I don't have a list as such. When I think of ones I want I add them to books I want to read on a facebook application sometimes though. That way I won't forget them or what they're called.

I don't have a TBR list either, but I've got a TBR pile of books at home!

I don't have a TBR list. I usually just pick a book to read from my bookcase.

I've recently tried to write a TBR list, because I kept forgetting of books I want to read. As thenephilim, I have it on a word document on my computer, it's divided into 3 sections: books I already own, I want to purchase and I want to check out from library. I add books on that list almost everyday. ;D

When a book pops into mind that I want to read I usually try to write it down so I'd remember to look for it later, and I used to have a TBR list, but now it's just... mostly my mind and random notes. I gave up making a list of TBR, I'm being more spontaneous

I have a marble notebook where I write down all the books I have read each month. It's also where I write down book suggestions for myself. I don't follow it religously though

I kind of have one, it´s just scattered Whenever I find a book that I want to read I write the title on a piece of paper, gum wrapper, tissues, . . .whatever is close. But I actually put them in an empty jar when I find them.

I have a wish list on amazon which is kind of my tbr list, so whenever I buy books from amazon I try to buy some of those that have been on the list longest. It doesn't seem to ever get shorter though. I also have a list on word where I've colorcoded the books in three, green for those I have read, red for those I own but have not yet read, and black for those I do not own and haven't read.

Color coding sounds like a great idea!

I have my TBR list in my computer.. it takes over 4 pages .. and I always print one page which I bring to the library and then I choose some books.. actually I choose always 10 books, because it's the maximum number of books you can borrow in one section.

Mine is a 19 page Word doc. This is because I am a bit obsessive-compulsive, and because it includes my movies-to-watch list, and because I'm addicted to the suggested titles feature on Amazon. Just books is 10 pages.

my TBR list is on my flashdrive on word. It used to be on the computer, but I soon found out that I would find out about a book during school or somewhere and forget to put it on the list! So, now I can just plug my list in anywhere. I have them in alphabetical order and I use the strikethrough function on the title once I have read it.

I have a huge TBR list on this one website. It's actually a place to make a catalogue of your cds and records, but I've created a private list there for books, found it the easiest way to keep the list. At the moment I have about 270 books on it...
