So where do the books get listed when I say to put them on my wish list when I'm not even logged in? I'm imaging that there is a huge wish list out there in cyberspace that is just taking up space. It tells me that the item has been added just like it does when I'm logged into my account, but obviously it can't be if it doesn't know who I am.

Just thought I would mention it as there is no use taking up space that isn't needed. I would think the system would prompt me to log in before adding a book to a wish list.

I don't think you can add anything to a wishlist if you aren't logged in.  It should take you to a default login screen to do that.

are you sure you aren't logged in?  have you checked your wish list right after doing that when you think/know you aren't logged in?

but then I stayed logged in all the time so have no idea for sure!

thats weird. I've hit the wishlist button thinking it would log me in and then add the book. No such luck. It tells me I need to log in 1st. I have to log in then go back to the book.

Interesting. It has never prompted me and I have to go manually to the log in screen when I realize that I'm not logged in and try again.

Now it's telling me that I have to be logged in. Very strange. Oh well, I was just curious about it. And now it is doing what I expected in the first place so all is good.
