Peter | 36 comments When I’m trying to choose an new book to read, it always annoys me to find I’m reading the description of a book I’ve already decided not to read. Wrong genre, whatever.

I wish there was a way to filter out these books from CloudLibrary, etc, so I can concentrate on books I might want to read.

Do any of you keep lists of books not to read?

Create a shelf here on goodreads Peter - then you can always refer to it.

To be honest, there aren’t many books I don’t want to read, though I don’t tend to read much horror. I use GR mainly as a cataloging System for my owned books.

Ha, I like that. Any examples you’d like to share?

I rarely reread books, so that’s not a problem for me.
