I keep all my ebooks neatly categorized in Calibre. I also keep track on Storygraph. I still register what I read once in a while, but don’t bother with any of the reading streak pressure because it causes me anxiety. I love checking once a year and see that, despite the fact that my currently reading list never goes down. My read list is always growing (as well as my to-read list). So I decided to stop worrying and just enjoy whatever it is I’m reading at the moment without pressure.
That’s ok, it means it is doing its job. It’s like feeling guilty because a water tank is filled with water. That’s why it exists, that’s what is there for. I personally delete books I’ve read from my kindle. My computer is the library with all books, and the ereader is the mobile library with all the books I want to read someday.

And how many are read?

Completely fair. I asked because I’ve got 2K+ books on my Kobo and I’m trying not to guilt trip myself too much about only reading a hundred or so…

I really like that analogy, thank you! I do think of my Kobo as my “forever library” and it is one of my prized possessions.
