Goodreads extract owned book metadata

Requirements:

  1. Data dump
  2. Book export
  3. Grab amazon books list and upload to {goodreads, system of choiuce)

Problems: Owned book JSON export does not conain any metadata to join to books collection

Notes

The Goodreads data dump, which contains (among other things) the set of owned books with custom covers, condition, and purchase date. However, the "owned books" data does not contain a Book ID, and so we need to match titles to extract a BookId from an owned book in order to access those covers and condition data.
