@bookhive.buzz Hi, I love the UI! Two small questions: 1. My StoryGraph import failed for some books (65 of 157). Appreciate the option to match failed ones manually later - felt a bit lazy to match all 65 manually. Do you think I had a better chance if I imported from my Goodreads instead?

2. Does the lexicon support indicating if a book is part of a series? Eg: The Fellowship of the Ring is no. 1 of Lord of the Rings series.

Right now series information is intentionally flattened. The new book lexicon I’m working on will help that bsky.app/profile/nick...

I've been thinking a lot about how to define a shared book lexicon for the Lexicon Community Working Group: discourse.atmosphere.community/t/in-which-a... But, instead wrote a treatise against ISBNs. I hope I can link to it whenever someone asks why their import didn't work on @bookhive.buzz 😝
