Why I Love Goodreads - M. Darusha Wehm
If you’ve never heard of Goodreads, it’s sort of like an online book club. Or library. Sort of. Like Shelfari* and LibraryThing*, Goodreads is a social networky place where you can list the books you’re reading, have read and want to read. You can read and post reviews, see what folks you know are reading and whatnot. There are links to buy books online from every book page, too, so it’s easy to get your fix fast. While this sounds cool, I’ve been surprised at how cool it really is. I read a lot, like really A LOT, now, and a lot of the books disappear into book exchanges. By keeping track of what I read, I can see what I’ve read and what I thought of it. A great way to remember the books I’ve loved (or less than loved).
