"Books to the ceiling
Books to the sky.
My piles of books
Are a mile high.
How I love them!
How I need them!
I'll have a a walking cane
By the time I read them."

Great change, more probable version of the quote ^^

Bit late but happy holidays to everyone!

[Kandice]

You too Ana and everyone else. Mine were lovely with all three of my children home. :)

[Ana]

Yay must be nice to see them all together :)
I hope you got nice books!

[Ana]

Hello there!
How is everyone doing?
Do you have any reading plans for the weekend?

[Ana]

Hello, folks!
How is everyone doing?
I have this week off work and am taking the time to relax.
Just my luck that I picked a book I just can't get into, though. It is taking quite an effort to get through it.

Let it go and start something else! Really. You can always go back to it later if you want.

Enjoy your week.

[Ana]

Eh I will, still have half of it left. I am really hoping I can finish today, though. Such a shame, the premise was so interesting.

Hi, good evening! How's everyone. I'm fine but I'm starting to have a real problem finding space for more books inside my house!

[Ana]

Hah I feel your pain... I have actually managed to reorganise my books to make room for more. I think I can squeeze in about 7 more!

[Melaslithos]

The biggest problem of a book lover!
Right now, I have several layers of books on each level of my shelves, and piles of book laying a bit everywhere around...

I really need to get to reorganize and clean-up a bit all this!

[Sorobai]

I have two or three layers in each shelve, but the problema is I don-t have any more shelves...

[Ana]

Yeah, I feel your pain. I need bigger shelves...

GoodReads just deleted all my read books of the year without warning! Wow Thanks so much GR... º_º

[Melaslithos]

When you go to your books page, there is this message on the top:

Note: some of our members have reported that not all read dates are showing. If this happened to you, no data was lost. We're currently working to restore this information

So don't worry, the info is not lost, just not showing! I hope they solve this issue soon.

Hi Melas,
Glad to ear from you. Hope you are doing fine.
I heard about that in another forum also but the problem is that all the past books of the GR Challenge disapeared not only the dates. Also it happened about 4 or 5 days ago already...
Well, I hope they will fix it or I will not participate in the next Challenges. : (

[Melaslithos]

Hi Sorobai,

I'm currently a bit overwhelmed with work, but I'm slowly wadding through it and hope situation will calm down soon ;-)

For me, my challenges and dates have all returned to normal (these are linked. If you have no read dates, GR doesn't know to make your books appear in the right challenge year).

If you don't see any improvement, you can check this thread and try contacting GR here:

Hi Melas,

Thanks for your reply. It seems the problem persists and I belive I'm not the only one affected.
Anyway I have 0 books read this year (I had about 90 books read) and all new read books are not showing after conclusion. So I guess it's really a big deal of a problem for GR. Hope the fix it but I have my doubts now... Anyway thanks for your help!
