Google Sheets Reading Tracker
I’m struggling using Google Sheets as a reading tracker, although I’m likely to use it at least in part since I would like to see all the fun graphs and charts comparing what I’ve read over the year. Page length, time spent reading each book, are audiobooks quicker or am…

The Choice of Blogging vs Vlogging
