I've been Googling and can't find an answer so I'm asking all you #Kobo users. Is there a way to get multiple wishlist/list of books?

I like to have different lists for different things. At the moment I would like a separate list for Kobo Plus books so I can just add to it and go for them whenever I buy it.

From what I've read ... No, but that's so weird. Am I missing something obvious?

I'm using the app/website

lil1inblue You can add books to collections, but that's only for books you own or download from Kobo Plus. I don't think there is a way to have multiple wish lists. I've got the android app and I also have a kobo reader. I checked both just in case. 10h

PuddleJumper @lil1inblue Thank you for checking. It doesn't appear to be a feature, I just wanted to double check in case. That's unfortunate, it's a feature I use a lot with Kindle and I would really like to move from Kindle to Kobo. I could make a list on Amazon for Kobo Plus I guess 🤣 10h

Do I want a #kobo (Clara BW)? I absolutely don‘t *need* one. I already own a kindle and a nook. Talk to me people. How do you feel about kobo?

Ruthiella What‘s your reasoning? What is the advantage over Kindle and Nook? 4mo

Sace @Ruthiella I‘m not that logical 😂. I really think it‘s just a matter of wanting one. In all likelihood I will talk myself out of it since I don‘t have a solid reason beyond curiosity. 4mo

rubyslippersreads One advantage to buying from the Kobo bookstore is that it‘s easy to back up your ebooks and add them to your Kindle. However, you don‘t need a Kobo device to do that. 4mo

Aims42 @rubyslippersreads 🤯🤯🤯🤯 I learned so much from your comment! 1. Didn‘t know Kobo had a bookstore 2. Didn‘t know I could add them to my Kindle! Thank you for sharing!! -Runs to Kobo‘s bookstore- (edited) 4mo

rubyslippersreads @Aims42 This video might help: https://youtu.be/FiO_cPbddnE?si=lK5roBa-X8r-2KVB 4mo

rwmg I've had a Kobo since 2012. I had to replace it with a Kobo Aura, which has more memory, in 2016 and I'm still using that one. I like the fact that I can buy from any e-retailer while Kindle restricts you to Amazon. I inherited my mother's Kindle but I don't use it nearly as much. 4mo

ImperfectCJ Ditto what @rwmg said about not being restricted to Amazon. Since 2020, I've cut out all Amazon purchases unless I get a gift card, so my Kobo is part of that boycott, but I also find the Kobo more responsive than my Paperwhite, and I love the seamless integration with Overdrive (I get most of my ebooks from the library and magaing that on the Kindle was a pain). 4mo

RaeLovesToRead I want a Kobo too (I have a Kindle Oasis) but what stopped me was when I realised I also wanted a Boox and a Remarkable 🤣🤣 I realised my gadget lust would never be sated!!!!!! If you have the money, I say go for it! But if it will mean you won't be able to afford food, then maybe hang fire!!! 4mo

Aims42 @rubyslippersreads Thank you! I‘ll give it a watch during my lunch break today 🤩🙌 4mo

Sace @rubyslippersreads I‘m also learning a lot. I will have to watch that video. 4mo

Sace @RaeLovesToRead gadget lust is real! 4mo

Sace @ImperfectCJ I also want to drastically cut down my Amazon purchases. I have a nook that I‘ve started using more regularly, but it‘s a little clunky. Also B&N will randomly cancel an order requiring me to call and verify info and then to place the order again. I get tired of jumping through hoops. 4mo

Sace @rwmg So you would say they are reliable? 4mo

Pruzy You don‘t need it, I‘ve been using my 2013 Kobo Aura for over ten tears and it‘s still almost as good as when I bought it. The longevity on ereaders is phenomenal. 4mo

Pruzy I guess that is a case for them being reliable though 😆 4mo

ImperfectCJ @RaeLovesToRead Gadget lust...yep. I've been eyeing a Supernote Nomad as a one-stop for journaling and e-reading. I've only kept myself from getting one by being uncertain that the reading experience would equal the Kobo (well, and because when I was initially tempted they'd temporarily stopped shipping to the US because of tariff uncertainty, which gave me the pause I needed to process my doubts). 4mo

RaeLovesToRead @ImperfectCJ Supernote Nomad, eh? ....... 👀 4mo

ImperfectCJ @RaeLovesToRead Boox, eh?...😁 4mo

RaeLovesToRead @ImperfectCJ if only I was a slightly more popular YouTuber.... then i could buy them all and do a comparison review video!!!!! Or if i was really popular I could ask them to send me one to review........ 4mo

ImperfectCJ @Sace I suspect that @RaeLovesToRead and I are not the best sources for advice about this, unless you want lots more gadget ideas. 4mo

willaful My Kobo has some features I really like, like being given the option to search in the current book, wikipedia or google, showing the due dates of my library books in the library view, and showing the charging status when charging, But I dislike how library books get added to my permanent library and I have to go through several steps to delete them, so I mostly read on my old kindle. 4mo

ImperfectCJ @RaeLovesToRead I love that idea! If I had more money to throw around, I would buy you all of them so you could do a comparison review video. Technically, I guess I could do my own in that case, but I'm not remotely a YouTuber. I do have a blog that a few people read, though...perhaps it would build character for my kids to pay their own way through college... 4mo

RaeLovesToRead @ImperfectCJ Woo!!! Yes. I need to find a rich sponsor don't I? To fund my "project" haha. When you think about how many millions of pounds that Christo and Jean-Claude spent on wrapping up buildings for art, I suspect that my own projects are relatively modest! 4mo

ImperfectCJ @willaful I agree, that's an annoying part of using the Kobo. It's a little simpler to remove/archive them on the website than on the Kobo itself, but it's still more clicks than is optimal. Batch edit would be wonderful. 4mo

Clare-Dragonfly I love my Kobo Libra Colour! I prefer it to my Kindle Paperwhite mainly because of the real buttons you press to turn the pages. Connecting a Kobo to multiple libraries is complicated and a pain but it‘s doable, and now that it‘s done, getting Libby ebooks on my Kobo is even easier than my Kindle. I also love that the Kobo supports Pocket reader, but sadly Pocket is being shut down. 4mo

rwmg @Sace I sometimes think about getting a colour model since mine is obviously a b/w one, being 9 years old. But I don't read graphic novels or manga much. And if I think colour is important for a particular book, I can just switch to the Kobo app on my tablet.

But yes, the one I have still works just as well as when I first got it. The battery doesn't hold the charge for quite as long but that decline isn't really an inconvenience. 4mo

AnnCrystal I looked into kobo for library books. Liked their eco device option (not sure if that option is still available). And liked the idea of not being attached to one bookshop, and that I can read independent published e-books. Then realized that even digital library books are timed and have waiting lists 🤔, I'm such a slow reader 😂...it was the main reason I wanted it so I just decided to remain paperbook loyal 📚💝. 4mo

shanaqui I love my Kobo. I also have a slightly older Onyx Boox device, from which I can access Kindle, Kobo, and various other reading apps because it's built on Android -- but I find I like Kobo's interface and customisability best. Mine's a Libra Colour, though.

I wish they'd kept doing Kobo Minis, and updated them with e.g. backlights. I loved those.

Oh, and I am enjoying the Kobo Plus program for borrowing books. 4mo

Sace @AnnCrystal my library doesn‘t use overdrive/libby. I‘ll have to see if kobo could work with hoopla/cloud library. 4mo

Sace @shanaqui I‘ve heard really good things about the Libra Colour. 4mo

AnnCrystal @Sace double check...I don't believe kobo does ??? (edited) 4mo

rubyslippersreads @Sace I don‘t know about Cloud Library, but Hoopla doesn‘t work with e-ink devices. 4mo

MaleficentBookDragon @Clare-Dragonfly do you have a link for a tutorial for setting up multiple library cards on the kobo? I just got a Libra Colour(❤️it) and moved my whole kindle and NetGalley library over, but haven‘t figured out connecting multiple Libby/Overdrive libraries yet. TY 2mo

Clare-Dragonfly @MaleficentBookDragon Absolutely, here‘s the video that worked for me! https://youtu.be/yo5suBeYOP4?si=2PP0Fxq7oYjIit0l I notice the title says “no longer working” but AFAIK it works again. 2mo

This was a comforting, cosy read which was what I needed. Perhaps a little stronger in its first half than the second but gentle and heartwarming.

While the world enters its Rats Fighting In A Sack publically era, I am getting back into my favourite Litsy challenges and buddy reads to try and cope.

First up is a re read of Making Money for #OokBookClub with @julesG (discussion starts 7th March).

Also my second time reading The Stand for the #LosersClub with @BarkingMadRead
I first read The Stand in February 2020 so I'm forming a habit of turning to it in, ahem, "interesting times"

#kobo

julesG Ook! 8mo
