Angelo Giuseppe (cerebro84) | 1 comments Hi,
I'd like to make a telegram BOT to easily update progress of the book I'm currently reading. But I can't find the API to even READ the progress. Is it something you are going to do?

Kyle Goetz (kylegoetz) | 1 comments I had to deal with this because I wanted to create an IFTTT webhook that would create a Day One journal entry with a book review template whenever I finished a book (i.e., progress went to 100%).

I ended up writing a little Node.js library to help with this. It's not the full app, but a little module I wrote specifically to help with this. You can check it out here to get an idea: https://www.npmjs.com/package/goodrea...
https://github.com/kylegoetz/goodread...

Basically Goodreads also exposes an RSS feed for each user's activity, so I had to parse that for specific data I wanted.
