isbn	string	No*	ISBN-13 or ISBN-10
title	string	No*	Book title (used with author for matching)
author	string	No*	Author name
status	string	No	Initial status (default: want-to-read)
place_hold	bool	No	Also place a library hold via Libby

*Either isbn or title+author is required.

Examples

{"isbn": "9780593135204", "status": "want-to-read"}
{"title": "Project Hail Mary", "author": "Andy Weir"}
{"isbn": "9780756404741", "status": "want-to-read", "place_hold": true}

Notes

• When place_hold is true and Libby is configured, BookLife will search the library catalog and place a hold automatically
• ISBN lookup is more reliable than title+author matching
• Returns the Hardcover book_id for subsequent operations
