Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Just found this



Sign in with your existing account details and you can track your books.

Very cool!

Now, if you could delete your unwanted books from here too, that'd be something...

This does indeed look cool, but I can't find it. I note that the url is for Amazon.com. Have you found the same thing in Amazon.co.uk? If, where please?


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Nope, seems to only be .com, sorry.

What happens when you click the link I posted?


message 4: by HJ (new)

HJ It takes me to Amazon.com, but I thought: I can't log in there as I'm UK. So I didn't, and it said "Hello, Unknown". I just clicked on the link again and, although I'm still "Unknown", there are a lot of books showing and I think they're mine! But it only shows 25 of them as read. I can't see why those ones have been chosen given that (although I do have a huge TBR) I have read hundreds more than that!

I've asked Kindle support how I find the UK equivalent, but it may be that they suggest I use the .com version.

Did you find it was accurate in recording books read, books stopped reading, books reading, etc.?


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Yes, just use your .uk details to sign in.

All my kindle books are showing.

I think they show as read if you clicked it on the kindle when you finished it but you can add them as read on the webpage.

Not sure if all mine are accurately marked. Can't be arsed to look through all 96 pages. :)

Tim | 8539 comments Interesting. I had no trouble signing in with my .co.uk details. It only shows 3 as being 'read' out of 463. The 'read' books are:
The Girl with the dragon tattoo (Stieg Larsson)
Pompomberry House (Rosen Trevethick)
The Sci Fi Freak's Guide To The Televisual Galaxy - The Vampire Shows (Darren Humphries)

(2 out of 3 being group authors :)) All the others show as unread. I've never seen a "mark as read" type button on the Kindle, so I don't know what criteria it uses. Lots of my books show 100% on their progress though.

Oh, it does show The Stand (Stephen King) as 'reading', which is accurate, but shouldn't it also show the many books at 100% in that category if they're not 'read'?

Baffled of Oxon.


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments You don't get the 'before you go' or whatever it says at the end of a book?


message 8: by Tim (new)

Tim | 8539 comments No, I just run out of pages...


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Hmmm

Which kindle do you have?


message 10: by Tim (new)

Tim | 8539 comments KK, Nexus 7 & iPad (not necessarily in order of preference or frequency of use)

It takes me to .com as well, but I logged in and it worked fine (:

Shows me as only having 14 books read though!


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Ah.

Won't work on the apps. Only if you've got the update on the KK too. Was the one before last, I think.

But you can go through the webpage and mark the ones you read though.

Might take a while. You'll need to eat chocolate while doing it to keep your strength up.


message 13: by Tim (new)

Tim | 8539 comments Not sure I've finished anything on the KK since the last update...


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments That answers the question then.

;)


message 15: by Tim (new)

Tim | 8539 comments Doesn't explain why three books *were* marked as read though.


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Ghosts


message 17: by Tim (new)

Tim | 8539 comments Good a reason as any!


message 18: by Philip (sarah) (new)

Philip (sarah) Willis | 4630 comments All my books are there but only 11 show as read.I don't see any of my ratings and I usually rate my books on completion.
Will explore further when I have more time.Thanks Patti.


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments That's weird.

Maybe try turning wifi on on the kindle?

Elle (louiselesley) | 6579 comments I put up a thread about this a few months ago -.-


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Yes I believe you did, now that you mention it...

Clever clogs
