On Reading Good with Goodreads

January 15, 2013

royalty-free-photo-antique-book-pile I love the idea of Goodreads. But somehow, I haven’t been able to get into the groove of actually participating much in it. I like being able to track the books I have read. I like being able to see what my friends are reading, and get book recommendations. And, I like seeing that even brilliant classics written by Dr. Seuss have some less-than-stellar ratings, which makes a less-than-stellar rating on my book seem not so significant. (Sorry Theo, even the best of us suffer from the occasional bout of schadenfreude!) It’s such a brilliant concept, and I want to use it…I do! So I officially declare 2013 the year of Reading Good…join me over on Goodreads, will you?

I’m curious and want to hear from you. Do you already use Goodreads, and what do you use if for? Also, in a grand experiment, I’m hosting a giveaway of my book, MARATHON MOUSE, on Goodreads, and do hope that after you answer the poll, you will head over there, connect with me, and enter to win! Thanks!

I already own Marathon Mouse, but perhaps I’ll enter to win one for my granddaughter 🙂 LOVE this book! As for GoodReads, I use it sporadically because I don’t have as much time as I need to do everything, but I definitely go on to read reviews, see what friends are reading and how they liked it, and check occasionally to see if anyone has said anything about any of my books.
