Goodreads migration questions

To answer your first question, there are any number of reading challenges that are carried out here in Talk: there are the yearly 50, 75, and 100 Book Challenges, Category Challenges, ROOT (Read Our Own Tomes) Challenges for winnowing down your TBR piles, and probably a bunch more I don't know about. If you're a fantasy reader, the Green Dragon has lots of threads where members keep informal track of their reading in personal threads. If you like children's book, there's a Newbery Challenge...and so on. Find a group (or more than one) that looks congenial, and join in.

There's nothing comparable to GR quotes that I know. I don't think there's something especially prohibitive about putting quite a few quotes in CK, but the form is itself limiting in the sense that it gets unwieldy if it takes screens and screens to wade through. That and CK is editable by anyone, so someone might delete some.

I put mine in comments and private comments (with a copy in CK of those I think might be of general interest). That way, I'm sure it will not be lost, but each of those is a single field.

Someone else is better suited to comment on challenges. I've only noticed numerous threads people open to track their annual challenge reading

You need to remember that CK is not a personal area. It is there for everyone, and while nobody is going to object if you add three or four quotes, if you add thirty or forty there will be objections, and if it is much more than that people will probably delete some of them. You could enter as many as you want in the comment field, which is personal.

There are a variety of groups that do reading challenges. Sign up for the group that suits you.

BTW, Please do NOT put your list of quotes in the review field. This will get red flags.

>1 pnppl: I don't think there's anything like the yearly challenge here. After all, LT is more geared towards cataloguing books, not reading them. At https://www.librarything.com/profile/pnppl/stats/library you have some stats, but they are limited.

(BTW, I keep forgetting which is the magic term which gets substituted with the username)

She could start a Yearly Challenge group...

>8 MarthaJeanne: Thanks!

>11 pnppl:

You can always keep your challenge on Goodreads and move everything else here. That way you have the tracker (and the old friends there) :)

I do tags per year as well ("read in 2020" for example).
