If I put some books on my books I've read list will they switch over to my bookshelf.  This would be a good way for me to keep up with what I have read but some of the books I've read I don't wanted posted on my bookshelf.  I have a couple of authors that I keep and don't want to post their books.  And can I do the same thing for my TBR list.  Right now the books I've read and TBR books are all together.  It would be easier if I could post them in there appropriate list.

the books you have read list will not appear on your bokshelf- that is its own little list. As for the TBR pile- I have all my unread books on that pile- just go to your TBR list and add books to the pile by the isbn number. They will stay there until you remove them, plus I think it is easier that way, because then you know just what you already have and can tell if any of those books are on other people's wish list.  Hope that answers your question.

And if you actually manage to read something on your TBR list (read? during the holidays?) you can choose to post it onto your bookshelf from there quite easily.

I don't use my TBR list at all, but repost from the "Books to Repost" list which also shows what is on wishlists, so I know what to bump to the top of my list.
