Bookshelf - Your Shelves

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

On your wish list, it means the order you want to read the books in it. If you want to read a certain book first, you put #1 and it get bumped to the top of the list.

On the Read shelves, it means ordering the books according to how much you loved them. If you loved a certain book the most, putting #1 will move it to the top.

Thanks gali. Now I get to think in-depth about the books on my read shelves.

Can you rank books on your shelf instead of them being in alphabetical order? If not, I think that would be great. I would definitely use it. I just read a book that I barely gave 3 stars, and it's going to be sitting ahead of an almost 4 star book.

Meaning if this could be added and it's not available right now

There is a bump feature. So, by bumping a book on your four star shelf, it will be shown to be your "favorite" book.

With time you could order every shelf to be exactly the order you wanted it to be 8)

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

No. One only needs to write a review on books picked from the Review Team Page.

You need to buy them. The site only provides books for reviews.
