Do I use a reading spreadsheet? No... but am I watching this anyway because I'm a spreadsheet nerd? Heck yeah! Also, because I spend so much time staring at my company's spreadsheets that I'm sometimes blind to what I could improve, it's useful to hear someone else talking about theirs in a completely different context (I.e. something I'm actually interested in) to give me ideas 😂 think I can claim this 18 minutes back as work time? 😉📚

[@AmyPitts71]

Oh mu goodness! I thought I had found my spreadsheet and then here is this one! I really wanted to make better star ratings this year and I love how you weighted this because sometimes the writing and everything is just fabulous but I just dislike the book LOL I will be giving this one a try as I also love your other details. This is simply amazing thank you so much!!

[@Alystology]

Ahhh Cassidy this is such an amazing spreadsheet!! I keep my books tracked on Notion but I got so many amazing ideas from this. Especially loving your rating system - that's going to be a game changer for me. Thank you so much for sharing and for this video! 😄📖

[@CoverswithCassidy]

Enjoy!!!!

[@anikamercier2651]

Love your sheet! Used it all last year and downloaded it again for this year.

[@Liamcb93]

📖 very nice! I’m not really a spreadsheet user but you’ve put loads of effort and detail into this 😁

[@Aliisreading]

I’m really enjoying the spreadsheet! It’s helping me with Elaborating my reviews which is a reading goal of mine

[@Jane42.]

So nice of you to share. This is a really impressive system.

[@cloudedhalobooks]

Thanks for sharing. I'm looking forward to having a go at tracking my stats :) 📚

[@kelsisbooknook]

Thank you for sharing your spreadsheet! I love using it so far ❤️

[@Kari_Pie]

A little late but so happy I found this, this will be my spreadsheet moving forward!📚

[@kerisbookishcorner2864]

Yay I’m so excited to use this! I love stats, spreadsheets and tracking things so much. And the new colors are so pretty-it kind of reminds me of rainbow sherbet ❤️ Thank you for sharing your hard work with us again! 😊

[@joanne1486]

I loved your spreadsheet last year and this one is even better, thank you for sharing with us all 💕😊

[@MariaMightReadThat]

I finished my first book today and I'm literally so excited to go and log it on this new spreadsheet!!! Thanks for putting all this work into it and sharing it with us 💜I'm sure I've told you this before but your spreadsheet/system is the first one where I didn't have to do a ton of rating adjustments at the end of the year. It just feels so accurate. ALSO I love the added author breakdown and quarterly stats sections!

[@MariaMightReadThat]

Haha also I feel like you'll get a kick out of hearing that I named my spreadsheet "2024 Spreadsheet (Cassidy's Version)"

[@CoverswithCassidy]

HAHAHAHAHAH CASSIDYS VERSION LOL

[@tine272]

cant wait to start using this! love the color choices for this year 💕

[@RyeMiArt]

Enjoyment makes or breaks book for me and your system seems perfect for rating my reads! Thanks a lot! And what an awesome idea for the notes section, how did I never think of that?! 📚

[@andreabootsma8478]

I used your spreadsheet as my tracker all last year and am excited for the updated version! My changes: I make the blanket column a reviewed button - since one of my goals is to write and post a full review for every book I read I made the Video Project column a Heard About column - current options are KZbin, Instagram and other, so I can track where I'm getting my recommendations from

[@CoverswithCassidy]

Oooh these are great ideas!!

[@meghanhoward7245]

Very cool I am going to give this a try. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@jaycarr5906]

I loved your weighted system last year (even if I forgot to use it half way through the year), and can't wait to use the new one.

[@lotussong_]

I downloaded your spreadsheet last year and forgot about it. 🙈 I have, shamefully, only finished two books so far this year so I'm starting fresh with this spreadsheet!

[@Mariahs-Moods]

This is absolutely fantastic! Thank you for sharing! ❤📖

[@Jonathan-B_]

Spreadsheets! Facts! Numbers! Things!

[@kotokoo]

Just yesterday, finish my spreadsheet and a friend point out I didn't have a method to track dnf's and your video pop up. I like it yours, it's so simple, mine is a "little" more complicated. I like how you track your rating, enjoyment is more important than worldbuilding or character, those can be perfect but if you don't enjoy the reading, it isn't good.

[@CoverswithCassidy]

yes I appreciate simpleeee tbh and not overwhelming myself

[@Sandra.950]

I want to track my reading more this year so this spreadsheet is great! Thanks for sharing it!

[@CoverswithCassidy]

It is fun to track and see at the end of the year!

[@isirlasplace91]

It is brilliant!!!! Thanks so much for sharing this!!!❤📖

[@CoverswithCassidy]

Glad you like it!

[@KristinKravesBooks]

Stealing that note column tip! And this will be the year that I stick to my spreadsheets 🤞

[@CoverswithCassidy]

It's actually the best tip I've ever thought of tbh 😂

[@kellycasey3612]

I already have a spreadsheet...but now I'm taking on the challenge of using both lol

[@amberspence5092]

Same! I haven't used spreadsheets before even though I do track some of these stats. Now I'm using Cassidy's system and G's for 2024 lol

[@Laurasbookishlife]

yay! this spreadsheet is awsome!!

[@CoverswithCassidy]

Glad you like it!

[@AndreaGReads]

I’m just not this organized with my reading, but I love how pretty this is! 😍📚

[@CoverswithCassidy]

it is really pretty to look at at the end

[@FourPawsandaBook]

Genius idea on the notes column! 😱😱

[@CoverswithCassidy]

RIGHT!

[@brandylatriecereads4357]

hello. I love your tracker. If I wanted to add a category to track the language the book was in how would I do that? Would I be able to create chart for it as well?

[@alisha7991]

Loved last years spreadsheet. It was so fun to write down all the info and see it all at the end of the year. Also copied last years to reuse this year, but i can't wait to transfer the books i have already read to this new one and use the new features. Thank you for creating it and sharing it for people to use 🥰

[@alanahwocker6402]

Thanks for sharing with us. I'm having a slight problem getting half star ratings. Even though the score is 7.33 which should be a 3.5 its only giving it a 3. I put the same number into last years and gives me the 3.5. I tried imputing some of my reads from last year that were half stars and again it just gave me the whole star.

[@CoverswithCassidy]

Last year I created a half star version as well as the full star. This year I did not

[@alanahwocker6402]

Hi, Does anyone know how to add a genre category on Sheets on an android phone? It does not have the drop down with an edit pencil at the bottom as shown on this video. It has the list of 14 genres, a keyboard icon that you can click and write whatever, but it won't be added to the list, and the next time you click on that cell it says that the content violates the cell's validation requirements. I read several categories of non fiction, including cookbooks, and I wanted to tailor my copy of the spreadsheet. Any help? Cheers 💙

[@CoverswithCassidy]

My suggestion would be to do it on a computer. Then you should get the drop down menu.

[@bethmw28]

Hi Mickey 😂❤🐈

[@soywei12]

I was wondering if there’s an easy way to change the stars to give half stars like last years? If not no biggie I just don’t know how to change it to it thanks!

[@kerisbookishcorner2864]

I was just coming back to comment this same thing. If there was a half star version like last year or some advice on how to change that myself.

[@CoverswithCassidy]

honestly its a lot of work to do half stars, and I dont use them so this year decided not to make one. you would have to change the formula for the star ratings which you do by opening those little arrows that are closed. you could use last years spreadsheet to do that and pretty much copy and paste. The harder part comes on all of the stats need to then be changed to make room for your half stars.

[@kerisbookishcorner2864]

That does sound like a ton of work! Totally makes sense when you don’t use half stars. Thanks for the tips, I may try messing around with it and maybe I’ll learn some things 😂
