Create a book list for future reading.

Bookqueue:
You've come across a book of interest from the web, co-worker or other source that you want to read, but you are already busy reading another book.  Instead of buying the book right away, put it in your queue for later reference and it is available for purchase when you are ready to read it.

- Added 'Reading' view, incl. sync with Goodreads 'currently-reading' shelf if account is connected.
- Added 'Cover View' option for Main screen. Switch View menu allows user to easily change between Cover or List views.

FEATURES:
- Export to Excel
- Set As Lock Screen
- Sync to SkyDrive and share across devices, incl. Bookqueue for Windows 8
- Date view to see books by their Publication Date
- Search "Similar Books" as the one currently viewed
- Have a Goodreads account? Connect Goodreads to Bookqueue for a consolidated view of your "currently-reading' and "to-read" shelves in Goodreads and your books in Bookqueue.
- Live Tiles displays your book personality by cycling through the covers in your queue.
- Know a friend using WP8 and Bookqueue?  Sharing is a Tap away, open the book details on your phone, ask your friend to open their main queue.  Tap and Share using NFC.
- Reminders for non-released books allows you to be notified on the day the book is released so you will not miss it.
- Backup and restore your queue to SkyDrive so you have a backup copy that can be restored on your current phone, a new phone, or your Windows 8 device for use with Bookqueue for Windows.

    This is a great app! The developer is responsive to user input and he just keeps making it better.

    Perfect for what I need! Great app!

    On goodreads, there is a place to say what you are currently reading and update what page you are currently on. This app, from what I've seen doesn't have that ability. This app only has books I'd like to read, but not the ones I have and am reading. I'd also like the barcode scanner as well to make inputting books easier and quicker.

    Love it. Would like to see a scan bar code feature to save time.

    Nice way to keep track of books to read.

    Does what SocialReads doesn't: shows me my list of books I want next while I'm off line. Syncs well and the author provides responsive support! When at first the app didn't sync for me, it enabled me to send the author a report - he notified me immediately that he was working on the problem and soon released an update that fixed it!

    Nice simple app. It would be nice if you could have a section to preview the first few pages of the book after you've added to the queue. Otherwise pretty solid.

    Just what I needed

    It always fails to sync with my goodreads account. No indication why.
