That saved me a lot of time - over 400 of my books already had GR IDs. The rest I just took my time, and have been doing it over the last few days. Let me know if you ever decide to do it and I can give you some more tips. I don't know if you recall, but I tried using it before and it didn't work for me either, but for some reason things "clicked" this time.

I did, however, export my goodreads shelves before emptying them just to be safe. (Not that import ever works like it should if I needed to do that.) It was just easier to "start over" than to try to sync what was already there.

Thanks. I'll think about it. Right now, I'm just adding books as I read them (or think about reading them ). What I'd like to do is create a 2012 reading list to follow for next years 100 book challenge. I know, however, that plans will most likely change as I keep finding/downloading more and more free books.
