What helped me was creating a smaller handful of books categorized as my current reads/immediate future. Collections on Kindle, but I’m sure other e-readers have some kind of tagging/grouping system.

I call it my “Bookshelf” collection and it’s my default view so I don’t lose track of in-progress books when I add new books to my Kindle, and I have to intentionally remove a book if I decide it’s a DNF rather than just forgetting about it.
