Word Count

I'd be interested in having a field "Word Count" so that I could track the lengths of my books.

I wouldn't expect LibraryThing to populate the field.

I would hope to populate the field manually, with the help of https://www.readinglength.com/ or other information sources.

Thanks for considering.

Do you use the pages/time length field? If not, or if you're fine with converting it, you could use it for word count until/unless a dedicated field were available.

Physical Description is a free form field, you could put it in there if you want to sue 'pages' for actual pages
