"How many books have I actually read this year?" PageKeeper answers that without the spreadsheet. Add what you're reading — title, author, and the printed page range — and log pages as you go. PageKeeper tracks your start and finish dates, your pace, and rolls it all up into the numbers you actually want to know: books this year, pages this year, and how fast you read. HOW IT WORKS • Add a book with its title, author, page range, and genre — stories that start on page 21 count fairly from page 21 • Not ready yet? Park it on your To Be Read list and start it with one tap when you are • Tell PageKeeper the page you're on — it works out how many you read — or log right from the widget • Finish a book and it moves to your Finished shelf, counted toward this year's total • Already partway through something? Give it a head start with your actual start date and current page • Read it before you got the app?
