Custom csv

If you've got your own CSV you're using to track your TBRs all you need are the following columns for it to be in a valid format

  • Title
  • Authors
  • Read Status* (See below)

Optionally, you can add the Read Status column. Set to-read for all books you want to be tracked. If you don't add this column the deal finder will run on ALL books in the CSV.
