The To-Do List (by Mike Gayle)
Mike Gayle writes a 1200-item to-do list and spends a year trying to check everything off. You may have noticed how much I love lists -- daily, weekly, monthly to-dos, reading lists, life lists, short-term and long term lists. So this was the book for me.
As soon as I got to the appendix (where he publishes the full list) I broke out a notebook and pen. I think I ended up with 125 new items to add to my various and sundry lists, and one of my items is "consolidate to-do lists."
I mean this was entertaining, funny, and well-written, but mostly it was inspirational and hit me right in the sweet spot. How much do I love a to-do list? So, so much. I can't wait to start crossing stuff off!

My library has this only in audio. What kind of sense does that make? No kind.
None! How are you going to see the glorious full list on audio?
