Adding tallies for Owned Books & Favorite Authors?

[LP]

I really appreciate the tallies in parentheses for books read, to-read, etc and would like to suggest tallies for

Owned Books

and

Favorite Authors.

While I realize that the Favorite Authors list can be manipulated by rank, I would love to see a total tally listed as well.

Thanks.

I think the owned books features is kind of an abandoned feature which was used for the now defunct book swap so I don't think they'll ever improve on it. Honestly, I don't know why they won't just remove that feature, without the book swap, it's moot.

I suggest making a shelf for owned books and then you can get a tally. If you want the shelf to show the condition of the book, you can add it by clicking where it says "shelf settings" near the top where the controls are.

Thanks, Robin. Great suggestion!

I hope they don't take you up on your recommendation (to remove the old "Owned books" category) before I make the transition!

Probably not, they'd likely give a warning first.
