Crystal K (crystal_k) | 102 comments Hi, I recently created a book list called Hidden Gems: Under 20 Reviews with the intention of helping new authors gain visibility and recognition. However, I've realized that I can't remove books from the list since I'm not a librarian, which was an oversight on my part.

So, I wanted to know whether this type of list is even allowed on Goodreads. Here are a few questions I have:

• Is 20 reviews enough to remove a book from the list, or should I increase this number?
• Should I add more tags to the list?
• Which discussion do I have to post in about list queries?
• Should I regularly update or filter the list, like every 2 weeks or a month?
• Can I ask for book removals in this thread?

I appreciate any guidance or suggestions you can provide. I want to make sure this list benefits authors and readers alike, and I'm grateful to anyone who can help clarify these questions.

Thank you for your time and assistance.
