Add automatic updating of read status on GoodReads (https://www.goodreads.com/)
💬 Narrative
It would be great to be able to link a book you're listening to to a GoodReads book when it's added to BookPlayer.
That way as you start reading a book it could have the started date automatically marked on GoodReads then as you progress the percent complete could be updated.
I often find that after a few years I can't remember what book in as series I was up to when the author releases multiple new books so Good Reads is a great way to track that but only if you remember to mark them as read! This would hopefully easily allow us to track them. Maybe even allowing future stuff like recommendations from GoodReads. 🤷♂️
📝 Notes
I suspect this linking would need to be done manually initially at least as there are often multiple copies of a book on there with similar names. For example I find Audiobooks are often books 1, 2 & 3 of a series and have the same name as the first book. A nice simple search UI or even initially just a way to add a GoodRead Book ID to your Audio Book when you first open it in the app.
