So, I’ve been searching for the one app that will automatically put all books by one author into the same list. And finally I seem to have found it! Just a shame 1) there is no free trial, as I’d like to try the other features before I commit to a payment. And 2) I find the app too late in the evening to spend time adding my books haha.
