Filter for Not Owned Books

Would it be possible to add a filter in our shelves for books we do not own (to complement the Owned toggle that already exists)? Seeing which books I own is helpful in terms of prioritizing a physical TBR, but I would love to be able to filter for Not Owned books to get ahead of which books I should put holds on at the library.

Remove Spoiler Blur from Finished Books

It would be incredibly convenient if the spoiler blur was removed from books we have marked as finished. It's not a big deal at all, it isn't too much effort to remember if it's a book I've read and click to reveal the text, it would just be nice to have. I'm not sure if some others would prefer this not to be the case for some reason, so maybe there could be a setting to control it? If it could be extended to also removing the spoiler blur from comment previews on finished books too that would really be the cherry on top, but not sure how complicated that would be.

Enjoying this a bit too much

Why have all the books I've picked from this list a hit? What might this say about me? I'm having the time of my life.

Ability to log previous day's reading

So many times now I'm reading then I check the clock and it's like 10 past midnight (writing this now at 18 mins past.....) and realise I didn't log any of my reading. It's happened SO many times now 😭

I understand not wanting to allow people to log whenever, but allowing a buffer of 24h might be nice? Can't always have internet connection or whatever as well

Taylor Jenkins Reid

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and Daisy Jones & The Six comes an epic new novel set against the backdrop of the 1980s space shuttle program and the extraordinary lengths we go to live and love beyond our limits. Joan Goodwin has been obsessed with the stars for as long as she can remember. Thoughtful and reserved, Joan is content with her life as a professor of physics and astronomy at Rice University and as aunt to her precocious niece, Frances. That is, until she comes across an advertisement seeking the first women scientists to join NASA’s Space Shuttle Program. Suddenly, Joan burns to be one of the few people to go to space. Selected from a pool of thousands of applicants in the summer of 1980, Joan begins training at Houston’s Johnson Space Center, alongside an exceptional group of fellow candidates: Top Gun pilots Hank Redmond and John Griffin, who are kind and easy-going even when the stakes are highest; mission specialist Lydia Danes, who has worked too hard to play nice; warm-hearted Donna Fitzgerald, who is navigating her own secrets; and Vanessa Ford, the magnetic and mysterious aeronautical engineer, who can fix any engine and fly any plane. As the new astronauts become unlikely friends and prepare for their first flights, Joan finds a passion and a love she never imagined. In this new light, Joan begins to question everything she thinks she knows about her place in the observable universe. Then, in December of 1984, on mission STS-LR9, everything changes in an instant. Fast-paced, thrilling, and emotional, Atmosphere is Taylor Jenkins Reid at her best: transporting readers to iconic times and places, with complex protagonists, telling a passionate and soaring story about the transformative power of love, this time among the stars.

Page Number Request

Only if this is feasible!

I like planning my reads sometimes based on book size! So if I check out reviews and decide I want to read I’ll usually check the page count to see where it fits in! Also if I find one and it’s not too daunting sometimes this helps me out a slump!
