@Deebster@beehaw.org I used to use #Anobii as well, it was far better than #Goodreads in its early days, unfortunately, the latter overtook them. Now, most of my shelves are on Goodreads.
You can go self-hosting mode. You can self-host #BookWyrm, or the traditional, ever reliable, #Calibre. ^_^ I no longer use Calibre because Goodreads.
On the BookWyrm side of things, it can import your books from Goodreads.

Before anything else, IANAL and TINLA.
The #Philippines, like South #Korea, have a law that “exempts a family who commit theft, swindling and malicious mischief from criminal liability exists”.
You can read more about it here: https://attorney.org.ph/legal-news/53-strange-laws-you-never-knew-existed-part-12-of-15-family-members-who-commit-theft-are-not-criminally-liable
This is probably what the police meant. Though, should have been still liable for civil.
Or, maybe, there is an IRR that states anything under a certain amount + it falls under this exemption, is indeed not qualified even if only for civil.
I think, the idea behind it is to encourage it being solved within the family instead of the family unit being destroyed because family members and relatives are filing cases against each other.
Again, IANAL and TINLA.
Tell your “friend” that their best course of action is to consult with an attorney.
