Access
Some of these files are quite large, so GitHub won’t show their contents online. See samples/ for smaller CSV snippets.

The dataset is accessible from Spotlight, recommender software based on PyTorch.
Contents
ratings.csv contains ratings sorted by time. It is 69MB and looks like that:
user_id,book_id,rating
1,258,5
2,4081,4
2,260,5
2,9296,5
2,2318,3
Ratings go from one to five. Both book IDs and user IDs are contiguous. For books, they are 1-10000, for users, 1-53424.
to_read.csv provides IDs of the books marked “to read” by each user, as user_id,book_id pairs, sorted by time. There are close to a million pairs.
books.csv has metadata for each book (goodreads IDs, authors, title, average rating, etc.). The metadata have been extracted from goodreads XML files, available in books_xml.
book_tags.csv contains tags/shelves/genres assigned by users to books. Tags in this file are represented by their IDs. They are sorted by goodreads_book_id ascending and count descending.
In raw XML files, tags look like this:
<popular_shelves>
<shelf name="science-fiction" count="833"/>
<shelf name="fantasy" count="543"/>
<shelf name="sci-fi" count="542"/>
...
<shelf name="for-fun" count="8"/>
<shelf name="all-time-favorites" count="8"/>
<shelf name="science-fiction-and-fantasy" count="7"/>
</popular_shelves>
Here, each tag/shelf is given an ID. tags.csv translates tag IDs to names.
goodreads IDs
Each book may have many editions. goodreads_book_id and best_book_id generally point to the most popular edition of a given book, while goodreads work_id refers to the book in the abstract sense.
You can use the goodreads book and work IDs to create URLs as follows:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2767052
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editions/2792775
Note that book_id in ratings.csv and to_read.csv maps to work_id, not to goodreads_book_id, meaning that ratings for different editions are aggregated.
