Allan Ashinoff (allanjashinoff) | 14 comments I recollect the general story line a novel I once read a gave a strong rating in Goodreads. Unfortunately, I do not remember the name, the author or the year in which I read it.

Is there a way to look at hundreds of books I've read and rated over the years whee they are sorted by number of stars given? While not better than simply remembering with that degree of sorting I should be able to make relatively short work of it.

Sandra | 31478 comments Whilst this isn't a librarian question, if you go to your My Books page & look down the list of your shelves, you'll find a link Reading Stats, click and it will bring up all the books you've entered as read over the years. Click on Details & it will bring up the stars, you'll have to go year by year though.

Bea You can also sort your My Books page by the star ratings. Just click on the word "rating" at the top of the list for your READ shelf. If it gives you a low rating first, just click again on the "rating" and it will reverse.

I wasn't sure where else to ask. Thank you.

Thanks. For as long as I've been an member/author here I never thought to try this.
