Goodreads and Big Brother (Amazon) Kindle log file

[jmesar]

I was surfing goodreads.com, and I found the place interesting; however, the place is helpful only if you log and value each book you read or is reading or plan to.
I have picked some libraries from Emule, and store in Calibre, so I just keep on Kindle the books I am reading or plan to read, an once finished I delete, so I haven't list the books I read.

My question is if there is a way to pick the information Amazon store in Kindle (They know everything I do on Kindle) and build the list of book I read on It. I try with ;dumpMessages but no useful information there.

Why not just use calibre to store the information on books you have read? I use the ratings column to mark books as read, but a lot of people use custom columns that they have created.

Kindle creates some technical folders, files for each file you uploaded to it. You can use the name of them if you haven't already deleted them too.

@pidgeon92
In the metadata I download for each new book, I use to download the rating information, however the power of goodread is to build a personal recommendation list, to do that the only way is to build your own list of read book with its rating. My library has several thousand of titles, so recommendation to choose a book to read is helpful.

If you refer to the files in \documents\:
.mbp
.apnx

They disappear when the book are erased. Do you meant to look deeper in the Kindle? Where (SSH perhaps)?

I referred to these. I supposed (and half-remembered) they will remain on the device. (maybe they remain only for the documents sent via email ?? ) anyway...
