Problems only book nerds can understand...

Goodreads helps so much. I'm glad I can access GRs on my phone when I go to the library.

Same, Danielle! Lol I use the phone app and scan books that look good or on display at the stores. Then if they have good reviews, I go back later and download them on my iPad! Haha

[Danielle The Book Huntress , Loves 'Em Lethal]

Oh that scan option is awesome!!!

[Aura]

Oh, yes. Love the scanner.

I thought of all of us :)

I'm so glad Amazon tells you when you already bought a book. I have been burned by buying the same book twice more than I care to admit!

This is why before joining this site, I maintained a detailed excel sheet with all my book information (author, rating, series info, etc.) that I would print out, and take with me before going book shopping. I got sick of accidentally buying the same books because of a cover change.

That's a good idea, Pagan. I wish I was that organized. I use Goodreads to catalog my collection, so it's good to check on there if I own a book now.

One reason I joined GR was for the organization! I was buying digital books more than once and rereading books I didn't like the first time around!

That was one of the reasons I haven't jumped ship from Goodreads with all the drama, and of course all the great folks on the groups on this site.

What drama?!

And yep, I've done the trying to buy books on amazon kindle that I already have quite a few times! I suppose at least I can tell that I really want to read that book to have come across it and yet again tried to download it lol!

There was an uproar because Goodreads deleted a bunch of people's reviews and shelves because they felt they didn't adhere to their rules, although they didn't tell them in advance or post a sightwide announcement. Quite a few top users left Goodreads over that.

Oh right, thanks Danielle :-) I'm guessing that they probably won't be doing that again then without proper notification lol!

[Danielle The Book Huntress , Loves 'Em Lethal]

Let's hope not!

I hate it when I find a book that looks really good, just to find out I already own it. It's a let down.

I guess, it's a great function otherwise I would have multiples copies of a bunch of books and would be so mad at myself for wasting my money.
