This is fantastic. I have a TBR tab on my super-duper extra reading tracker. It is a Google sheet, so not as functional as yours, and my list is basically just a running list of every book that comes into my home. Maybe I need a new tab that is more TBR in practice.

I find it really helps with that FOMO feeling that I'm not reading fast enough. Kind of like when you feel the itch to shop so you add things to your cart for later, lol

I am setting up my library and TBR now using your template, thank you for sharing! I was wondering, do you include ARCs (physical and e-ARCs) in 'owned' books? In the past I've kept owned books and ARCs separately in lists like this but I don't think that really makes sense and I'm not sure why I did it that way for so long!

I definitely include physical ARCs as books I own!

I don’t actually track owned ebooks because I don’t buy them (although that might change when Bookshop.org launches ebooks!), so I don’t own many. All the ebooks I read are either library books or netgalley, and I capture netgalley books with a tag.

You could totally add a checkbox column for whether you own something digitally! Or even turn the owned column into a single-select and have the options be something like physical/ebook/no

Awesome, thank you! I've been having a lot of fun setting this up and playing around with Airtable, which is new to me!
