Good idea.
I’d also really like it if they were sorted into categories. If I fancy a sci-fi I can click that and it will show all of those in my library.
Preferably in some kind of order. Not sure what though
It is a bit more faff but you can set up categories yourself. I have ‘sci-fi’ ‘fantasy’, ‘horror’ etc etc all set up on my kindle account then when I get a new book I go straight onto the kindle app and manually add it to those categories.
It does mean a little bit of work but I quite like having control over what I tag things as (also it lets you tag things in multiple categories so it can be in ‘horror’, ‘sci-fi’ ‘novels’ at the same time. I might even start a ‘rated on DiS’ category now I think about it…)
I’ve got so many unread books on my Kindle now. I know that I’ll never read a huge chunk of them because they were bought on a whim, rather than actually being things I want to read. Take this recommendation (no idea why it was recommended to me) for example. It looks horrendous, absolute pure trash, but I thought I’d buy it for “a laugh”. Well, who’s laughing now? Big Kindle, that’s who!

I’m currently reading something and have no idea how it ended up on my kindle. And its quite boring. How did it end up there. A reccomendation? A hunch? I liked the cover? I guess we’ll never know.

Notes On An Execution - Danya Kukafka
Daily deal. Undecided if I want to buy or read it though. Will maybe check out the first few pages to see.
It’s very good.

I remember @Epimer posting about the Sea Of Rust book earlier in the year, as I was contemplating it then. @Epimer, you’ve 100% surely read it by now. How was it?

I read it and really enjoyed it. Fast-paced post-apocalyptic romp with anthropomorphised robots. Good stuff

Sebastian Barry - Days Without End
I’ve bought another 99p book of his, but not read. Guess I should add this to the pile. Seems like a couple of Dissers liked it.
