I'm not sure how common this is, but I have owned books in my home library which I want to inventory in TheStoryGraph, but don't necessarily want to read them.
That means that currently my read/unread plot is a bit useless because a lot of the "unread" aren't on my TBR. So it doesn't really give me the purpose this plot was made for (I think), which I interpreted as "how many books have I read out of all the books I own and want to read"
Basically I think the assumption of this plot is that all books owned must necessarily be in the TBR pile and this isn't necessarily true for all people.
So a possible suggestion would be to make that distinction with an additional plot:
Owned books: Read vs Unread
Owned books: Read vs TBR
Obviously for some people, they would be exactly the same, but for others the later plot would give them much more information to understand how close they are to having a 0% owned TBR.
Thank you in advance for your consideration!
Thank you for your post! Will keep this in mind! For now, to get the list, you can filter your owned list by those on your TBR or vice versa, so you have a number to track, if you're interested in that!
Just to give an example. What if you own a dictionary or a reference book of some kind you won't necessarily read? Under the current plot you would never get a 100% read to 0% unread split. Unless you are committed enough to go read a dictionary back to back just to get that sweet sweet 0% unread. Which, you know, respect! 💪😆 But I can't do it lol
