Looks like it changed for 2025. Now you can set a yearly reading goal and you can count books read on other platforms( KOBO, Nook, Boox...etc) by adding them to your goodreads shelf as "read". I tested it out, I read 2 books on my B&N Nook( What moved the Dead for example) , added them to my goodreads shelf as read and it now shows up on my Kindle app for iOS/Android and is counting towards my reading goal. Finally a way to group all my books from all sources together

I prefer the reading challenges on StoryGraph. The MobileRead Reading Challenge is on StoryGraph.

I was looking for the option where I can add books from other platforms until I realized that this works via Goodreads-sync, so this is only working for US and UK.

The Goodreads version is all I want; it doesn't bother me to manually add my books. I read enough on Kindle that in prior years I've racked up a lot of "achievements", but I didn't care that they didn't sync.

I've never linked my Amazon account to my Goodreads account. They've both got tons of data on me anyway which they're constitutionally unable to employ in a manner helpful to me or them in terms of recommendations, so why make them a gift of even more?

I use the Hardcover app but it's nice to see it all on kindle via goodreads sync

I found a FAQ page for this feature:
https://help.goodreads.com/s/article...ress-and-goals

So it is US at the moment only, but if you're in the correct region, it'll also sync your reading goals etc.
