Do you tag? How do you tag? How do you feel about tagging- do you think it would be better to have standardized tags, like libraries have standardized subject headings, or do you like the individualized nature of tagging? What are your top 5 tags and what do they say about your collection or your reading habits?
I didn't start tagging immediately. But after I read somewhere that the Early Reviewer formula might possibly like tags, I began to tag in earnest. I actually find it quite useful. I have tags for ARCs, signed books, various genres, favorite books and the 1001 Books to Read before you die that I have read (among others). It makes it very easy to sort my books and find what I am looking for.
My current top 5 tags are 1001 Books (113), Literary Fiction (90), Classic (76), YA (42), Dystopia (26). I think it does pretty accurately reflect my reading habits.
And now for the latest priceless picture of Miss Emmy - just hanging out:

Miss Emmy - how sweet! Love it!!
What a great photo! Miss Emmy is beautiful and I love that sleeping pose. Haha
I'm still trying to find my tagging style. It's been interesting reading how others tag. I'm taking notes!
AWWW!
I started tagging because of ER, too! As soon as I did, I got my first ER book...soo...maybe it worked?
luvz teh kitteh! :-)
you have a nice collection of dystopian fiction- i'll have to check it out in more detail, it's one of my favorite categories of fiction. :-)
I just love that photo - what a pose! I must think about adding the 1001 Books tag.
I've just thought of a tag I haven't used so thanks, I need to tag those books I'm reading for my 50 book challenge.
Dystopia - I like that. What an interesting tag. I will be visiting that list. It's been quite some time since I've read Animal Farm. In this day and age, it seems rather appropriate.
Aw too cute! I also started really making an effort to tag when I heard about the ER algorithm, but I'm glad I did!
I trust you have a copy of Arukiyomi's spreadsheet if your top tag is 1001 books...
