I saw this somewhere, I think it was a Top 5 or 10 Tuesday, my apologies for not tagging but I can’t remember where I saw it (I’m still suffering lockdown brain!)
I thought this was a fab idea but as I am technically challenged it took me a while to figure out where I could get a tool to interpret the data from the .csv file from Goodreads!
Luckily I found a Bookstats tool here
https://almoturg.com/bookstats
You just need to add your exported .csv file.
The results really surprised me! Look how many romance authors versus YA authors!
- Cora Reilly – 15 books
- LJ Shen – 17 books
- Amo Jones – 19 books
- Sarah J Maas – 19 books
- Anne Malcom – 20 books
- Cora Brent – 22 books
- Tillie Cole – 24 books
- Aurora Rose Reynolds – 28 books
- Jamie Begley – 30 books
- Kristen Ashley – 37 books
I think this is something I will do periodically, maybe annually or every 6 months.
Have you ever done this?
Were you surprised at your results?
This does look like a fun idea!

All my books are logged on Goodreads, their shelves are sortable, I’m sure I could find out without too much fuss but I do like the idea of this book stat tool. Thanks for sharing it, Caro.
