Some languages - particularly Lithuanian - use "Sentence case" for book titles. I.e. first letter of the book title is Uppercase, rest of the words are in lower case (if words are not referring to names or places). If title consists of two sentences then again Uppercase letter at the beginning of next sentence.

But problem is that all titles downloaded by Goodreads plugin are converted to Title case. This should be optional. Please see example of Lithuanian book in Goodreads:
"Mirtis šampano taurėje"

The attached beta should fix this. The title formatting was being done based on the language fetched for the book. It should only be done for English or if there was no language. But, the language wasn't being fetched properly except for a small set of languages. This change should work for more languages.
