Out of interest, do you have a list of all your ratings? I'd love to see what you think of all your books, such a great collection!

Thanks! I need to work on updating my star counts, but I have many of them here https://mybibliotheca.org/u/gabe1?status=read&sort=status
Hopefully this helps! You’ve inspired me to finish transferring my ratings over.

Wow! I love the truly eclectic nature of your reads. I see books I've read, authors I've loved and books and authors I haven't gotten to yet. I'm currently buried in a Cthulhu Megapack, 40 tales by Lovecraft and other authors. I'll probably break from it after finishing the next story. I was unaware until recently that Mark Twain had written a 2 book set on Joan of Arc. I've got the Gutenberg versions downloaded and ready.

Any favorite authors that we have in common? I’m curious now!
