Penny Hi guys, does anyone know what happened to Buggy? These used to be Buggy's lists and when I messaged Buggy to ask about another one, I got no reply...Buggy had done it for what, 9 years???

Kind of strange to disappear like that...

message 16: by Rainbowheart (new)

Rainbowheart FYI, the second ranked book (Dear George, Dear Mary) appears to be the subject of a promotional campaign on Listopia. Lots of voters adding just this single title to multiple lists.

@ Rachel Adiyah
As the book is obviously spam (and has been removed from other lists because of it), would you like it removed or just let it it be?

I've been pining for a "no spam" clause on this list the last few years, similar to what some of the other lists have. I get that people want to have their newly-published book recognized, but it kind of ruins the authenticity of "what we've read so far" lists (see the 2017 list). But that's just my unsolicited 2 cents... 😝

I have a list for those born in the 90s that I'm trying to delete this from, how do you delete it?


message 22: by Rainbowheart (new)

Rainbowheart Any GR librarian can delete it, Katie.

Which list would you like it removed from?

Shannon Katie wrote: "I have a list for those born in the 90s that I'm trying to delete this from, how do you delete it?"

In the edit screen all the way at the bottom there is a choice to "remove particular book" that brings up a list and you can delete it from there.

That only works if you're a GR librarian... (which Katie isn't and you are). It is specified on the 'edit' page: "Important: if you're on this page you have been granted a special "librarian" status, and can edit list data. Don't take this responsibility lightly—if you can help correct any inaccuracies or add any missing data, please do so! But only make changes if you're sure they're correct."

Thank you!

Rainbowheart I went ahead and removed it for you, Katie.

Katie Van Alyne Thank you so much!


message 28: by Penny (new)

Penny FYI - I've just 'voted' for a book I've just read and I had to add it as it wasn't already on Goodreads. I have read it, it does exist, so please don't remove it. The book is called 'Rachel Cartoonz Book two' by Di Batchelor.
Cheers,
Penny :D

The Crawdads book? I feel like this is the first time I've seen that up there, and I just added a book yesterday so now I'm wondering how long it's been there haha

Crawdads has been on the list for a while, but it does keep moving around. The Silent Patient is new this month.


message 36: by Kat (new)

Kat It is pretty amazing to see new books popping up. I've just about tapped out (already added 99 books to the list), and am always amazed at how few of the top books I end up having read. To me, that's the funniest part of participating in this list. I haven't read any of the top 10 at all, though several are on my "to read" shelf.

I find the same. I've actually read two of the top ten books so far this year and I'm shocked.


BookLovingLady (deceased Jan. 25, 2023...) Is there a new list yet for 2020?

Elle If there is, I haven’t seen it yet.

If anyone finds/creates one, though, I’d love it if you could link it here!
