I keep several different wishlists:

- Amazon exclusives (grumble, mutter).
- Three "Hold" lists:
--- Moratorium: series that look neat that I haven't bought into.
--- Suspended: series I'm behind on and don't want to invest in until I catch up.
--- Promo Hold: stuff from both of those lists that I can use Kobo promo codes on.
- Two "Available" lists (eligible and ineligible for promo codes).
- Anthologies: usually trade paperbacks where I'm watching for the electronic prices to drop.
- Upcoming: Exactly that. Usually divided into a couple of monthly lists and two or three quarterly lists beyond that. I track just about any future release of interest here, not just books.
