Oh I would love to join...

I am setting my Goal for 52 books (at least).

Are we meant to post a list every time we finish a book or do we post a small reply counting the read books (style: 10/52)?
I will also have to look back in time to have an accurate number

I tend to add a book to my list anytime I finish one.
