Content

The data was acquired by scrapping goodreads.com. Goodreads is an American social cataloging website and a subsidiary of Amazon that allows individuals to search its database of books, annotations, quotes, and reviews. Users can sign up and register books to generate library catalogs and reading lists. It's one of the biggest community for readers with books ranging from classics to more new releases.

I have been part of this community for a long time and wanted to share this data with you kaggle community to see their work.
