Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I just found out about this site, it's probably really old but new to me. I mostly just like having someplace to keep track of what I read. Anyone here use it?

I just signed up, my account name is Glenj, hit me up with a friend request if you are a member there, I'm always looking for new stuff to read.

nice find! I just signed up as well. Creepy thing about that site ; I was taking the test of what books to rate and Stephen Kings The Shinning popped up. That's the next book I plan on reading. -eek-

I've been a member for awhile it's a cool site.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I'm a member, if anybody wants my account info PM me.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I use, and love, goodreads. More than using it to find new stuff to read though, I use it to keep track of what I read.

I keep my circle really tiny, but I added you since you're the man with the good taste in comics. -wink- My SN is johnnybvo.

172 looks & only 3 people here are on good reads? Too bad.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

<-- Am also a member, but have not been keeping it entirely up to date.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I joined, but I don't see an easy way to import the books that I've read. I tried to add them via the wish list at Amazon.com, but most of them didn't add properly.

Make that four. I'm MitchH.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I haven't found a good way either. I've been manually doing it when I remember to.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I've added all of my books I've read this year, along with starred ratings. I wish that you could give half stars, but I guess it's not a big deal. When I look at other lists and I see other things that I've read in the past, I'll probably add them as well, but since I never kept a list before, there will be a lot that I'll probably never add.

If you want to add me as a friend:

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

Sessa17 & lattethunder, I've added both of you guys as friends. When I get a chance I'll have to go through your books to see what you guys are interested in.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

Sorry for the thread resurrection. Just added a few of you guys as friends on goodreads to hopefully get and give some good recommendations!

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I've been on goodreads for sometime, don't know I didn't post in this thread: goodreads.com/dropout

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

Don't be sorry, I forgot all about this thread.

I've been updating my Goodreads account a lot more since I got my Kindle. I really love the format of that site. I saw that you & I have pretty drastically different tastes, but maybe we can check out something new.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

That might be a good thing, since at least I'll get some exposure to genres or material I would otherwise skip!

I'm pretty good about keeping goodreads updated, although I don't normally write reviews unless there's some specific notes I want to remember about the book. It's very handy to refer to, in order to see what I've already read.

I'm waiting to see what Apple ends up releasing (if anything) for a tablet / e-reader, but I'll probably end up with a Kindle as well. It'd be great if they had some integration with goodreads -- eg. being able to mark a book as read and give it a star rating directly from the Kindle, and being updated over the 3G connection. Would help me to not forget to update!

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

There is a similar site called Shelfari. I'm not sure which one is better (features, number of members, etc.).

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I put so much work into the Living Social Visual Bookshelf for facebook I dont know if I want to start over

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I don't know what that is like, but the Goodreads set-up is excellent. Just really well organized and they have everything.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

That is actually a website I have missed in my bookmarks. Some months ago I started a manual list on Rate your music for the last books I read. But goodreads seems of course much more comfortable. Thanks, Sessa!

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I'm on there as well - as xmiyux of course.

I keep my profile updated. It makes it handy to add books to a "library" shelf and then when i hit the local library i just log into a computer and see what books i want to read. Makes it easy to check things out without needing to sync anything or carry a physical list.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

im a member but dont frequent it that much..the whole interface is unappealing and cheesy looking to me

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

Just starting using it a couple of months ago:
http://www.goodreads.com/pointyskull

I'm still trying to enter in stuff I've already read, as well as my voluminous "to read" list.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

They just came out with a goodreads iphone app, its free. I like it a lot b/c when I'm out in a store now & I see a book I want to read I can just add it to my goodreads list.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

Edit

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I love Goodreads! I friended a few people in this thread. My account is at www.goodreads.com/joeleoj. Um, also, hi Rich.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

HA!!!!!!!!!!!! Hey Joel, I live here!
It is the proverbial small world...

Feel free to add me, even though I just really started using it.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

Thought I'd give this a bump since I see there are a few new people using this site here.

Also I have friends of some of you guys here, but I don't know who you are on goodreads because of the different names.
Here I am if anyone wants to add me . . .

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I've just joined goodreads under my own name, David Marshall. I'm basically an SF, fantasy horror person with the occasional mystery thrown in. Join me as a friend if our interests overlap.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I love it! I don't have an account because I simply have too many books to keep track of and I don't have much time to keep track of the book. It's a great site and most of my friends either use that or LibraryThing

Other good ones:

Shelfari

BookArmy

aNobii

Bookcrossing

BookJetty

Going to be using GoodReads for books I read, and LibraryThing for books I own.

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

Went and added everyone I could from this thread. If I somehow missed anybody, feel free to add me:

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

Hmm looks interesting, is there anyway to import from Amazon or Librarything?

Re: Anybody here on goodreads ? (good site to find new stuff to read)
 

I joined GoodReads a couple of years ago, but I've just started actively using it and adding a ton of books I've read or want to read. I added several people from this thread, but anyone else can feel free to add me as well!
