Pls Add to Notebook

I rotate through a lot of different sims and am always forgetting what they've already done, what recipes they've already learned, who they've already kissed etc, and sometimes it's important for completing aspirations (eg, kiss 10 sims, finish reading three books etc). It would be so handy if they could keep a record of these things, and seeing as the Notebook already exists and they always have their phone, my sims could quickly check what food they should try next when they're at the food festival for example, what new book to read at the library etc.
Players, what are things that are already in the game, that you'd like to keep a track of via the notebook?
So far, we only have fishing and gardening.

perhaps next to read books, we could also see written books.
Also some kind of memories, like tracking boy/girlfriends and how many days the romance lasted, divorces...
The strange thing is all of this stuff was tracked in Sims 3. They must realize that these types of stats are fairly important and it shouldn't be that hard to implement. I can understand (though not like) why some big features were stripped out, but this is basically a UI thing, unless that information isn't kept at all.
Often this tracking system was how i realized that i was improving some skill but i was doing always the same 2 or 3 kinds of interactions. Analising it helped me diversify my game in sims 3.
I'd also like for achievements/collections to be remembered as well. I have a household with a basement full of frogs for example. Rotate and come back and now suddenly the collection isn't complete unless I manually put them all back into my sim's inventory, just to drag them all back out to their displays.
It seems like every time you rotate, you wipe all the stuff you would like them to remember.
Also first crush/love. Places visited and traveled to.
@Frn0731 -Places visited is a nice idea. Added to list too.
Another way they could do it is as collections, like the Experimental Photo collection, but I think I'd prefer the notebook because it could then also tell us what ingredients are used for each recipe.
And!
Please please please add this for books. Right now, all my bookworms read whatever they want 'cause I don't care what they read - but if they listed what they've already read then this would give me the goal to read ALL the books! I was really surprised the other day just how many books have been added over the years. But my sims all keep just reading the same ole base game ones because there's no real incentive to buy the other ones.
