calibre compare 2 goodread shelves

timbr00 · 05-09-2021, 04:40 PM

is there a way I can compare 2 good read shelves?
I have a shelf synced from calibre to good reads with everything on my kindle and want to compare this to my want to read list.

in theory I can then source the books I don't have in calibre or remove them from my want to read list.

You could probably use the Goodreads Sync plugin. It has function to fetch the shelves and set a tag or other value for each shelf. You could then find all books with one tag but not the other.

Or you could export your book list from Goodreads to a CSV file. That includes all the bookshelves for each book. You could do the checking in there.
