I don't mind this at all, but I do mind the extremely slow servers backing the site. It's overloaded, either through inadequate hardware or poor software or both.

> 10-star rating system (More nuance than 5 stars)

10 star rating is an anti-feature. I just don't have that level of granularity in how I feel about books. The only real feature you need is data migration / portability -- if I can't get my extensive records out of Goodreads, there's no point.

> Import your library from Goodreads/StoryGraph

So that's good. Does it include ratings? Can you continue to sync over time or is it a one-shot?
