October 2017, I labelled this “Where’s My Book?” a godsend. And this despite that it was pretty slow. Back then, there were literally no way to search amongst one's Google Play Books. Now, May 2022, Google has added a filter tool - which works cross browser (read: in Firefox too) and cross platform (in Android too). The built-in filter/search tool is blazingly fast as well. Hence I think this add-on should not be recommended or offered anymore.

As far as I can tell, other people aren't having this problem so it might be something I'm doing wrong, but this is not working at all. No matter what I type or how long I let the page load, the result is always "Displaying 0 of 0 total books loaded" Refreshing the page didn't help, and neither did removing and re-installing the extension. I even tried turning my Adblock off, in case that was the problem. If this glitch is fixed, this extension would be very useful, but until then this is 1-2 star rating from me.
