I can see the issue now. The CLASSICS Bookshelf has only one Jane Austen book. I put a disclaimer at the top that 'bookshelves are curations' that may not include all available works. If there's a more comprehensive way to capture genres, I'd love to check it out.

Thx for the good info. Still learning the ropes:)

Is their a way to get a more definitive list? I plan to do more ‘genre’ focused graphics in the long term so I’m curious how that might work if bookshelves aren’t comprehensive. Thx Andrew.

One thing that's good to be aware of, is that any "bookshelf" listing like that is reliant on having a volunteer manually add books to it. So there is no guarantee of the list being complete or up to date.

Some Bookshelfs may just be a list that one volunteer made once upon a time, and has not been updated since.

With that said, it's still a valuable thing to do, as long as we keep in mind the limitations of it.
