A Bookish Flowchart

I came up with a bookish flowchart some time ago just for the fun of it. The process begins from finding the book, to buying, and all the way to cataloguing and blogging about it.

I usually found great books either from fellow bookbloggers' blogsites or from other sources of media. I would then either shop online or at my favourite bookstores. What I don't buy now, I put them into my Amazon.com wishlist (fiction and non-fiction). You would also see the list of all my favourite bookstores in the flowchart.

My Bookish Flowchart

You can see or download the larger version of this flowchart here.

Bookish memes such as the Mailbox Monday encourages me to "blog about new purchase" and Teaser Tuesdays adds on to my eventual reviews of those books.

Blogging about books and reading is so much fun! I would love to hear about your bookish habits too! Do share.

  1. Wow - that is really organised. I like that you put plastic covers on your books. I would like to do this, but haven't a clue where to get the covers from.

  5. WOW, that is a LONG process. You really take good care of your books. Lol, I buy them, read, and then put it on the shelf to collect dust, unless if I re-read.

  6. Hi Viv! I noticed that it's quite difficult to get plastic covers when I was in Australia, at least not the type I'm used to in Malaysia. The ones in Australia actually clings to the cover and sticks on it. Took me a while to get used to wrapping my books using those. I hope you'd be able to find the plastic covers. They really help in maintaining and keeping the books in mint condition.

    Hi Terri! Glad you like the flowchart! :D

    Thanks, Julia! For years I've done many of these charts at work and I thought, hey, I should do one for meself too. LOL I'm sure you can do one for yourself too. I'm sure. I do have something to show for Monday Mailbox... :)

    Thanks, Violet! And I always love your book reviews. Keep 'em comin'!

    Hi Stanley! I don't think it's long... LOL. My books are like my babies. I don't break their spines if I can help it. I keep most of them in covered shelves because I don't like dust...
