Year-End Roundup
Jun 20, 2021
I really enjoyed Goodreads year-end feature. It's was a graphically pleasing collection of reading accomplishments that included things like:
- how many books read
- longest book
- shortest book
- most popular
- least popular
- highest rated
The StoryGraph could do something similar but also pull other info from the stats like:
- most read genre
- most read mood
- how many re-reads
- challenges completed
- series started/finished
- pages read
- hours listened
- top 3 tags
- other cool facts (I've attached a picture from LibraryThing of cool random facts about all the books I've read and logged with them)
You could also give the users an option to select their favorite books/month or top 10 for the entire year or something.
I know a lot of these things we can see on our yearly stats pages, but not all of them, and it would be a cool addition to the Reading Journal to have a year-end history of our accomplishment, favorites, and so forth. :) And if it's graphically pleasing, more the better.
Comments
My personal favorite feature of the GR round up is the collage of cover art for all the books I read. It's one of the only things keeping me tracking on both apps.
Hello! Love these ideas, I imagine we'll definitely be brainstorming some end-of-year ideas, as we know people love sharing annual round ups! Thanks for your suggestions :-)
