So often, we let our body determine how we feel, what we do and Fully Alive shows us that the healing begins inside in our spirit and how important our mind is in that process. I am excited about my future after reading this beautiful book.

JRR-559's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 9/28/18 12:44 PMHaving traveled in Asia extensively for business, I found the history about Korean-Japanese relations and the treatment of Korean immigrants to be very enlightening. The information about the Christian Church in colonial Korea was also interesting. By the end of the book though, I was beginning to wonder what the point of the book was supposed to be. It’s a bit like a Mitchner family chronology. I just wish there would have been a transcendent theme. In any case, kudos to Ms Lee for a good story.

Reviewed on 9/27/18 8:22 PMReally enjoyed this novel. If you like a good spy tale, you should like this book. A lot of good espionage tradecraft details, written by a former pro. Jason Matthews has also created many rich and believable characters. The perceptual powers of the Red Sparrow herself, Dominika, may strain credulity, but it’s done in a way ingeniously illuminates the story. I wish I had that power.

scammy81's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 9/26/18 7:30 AMLove at first sight isn't always smooth going, often there are many bumps on the way - and so it goes for Garrick and Hannah. Garrick is a complex character that Dawn has created as our erstwhile hero. He's been to war and carries scars and does not feel worthy of our dear Hannah. Hannah is a sweet young woman that is faced with challenges of her own but faces them with her head held high, she is a strong character and well developed by the author. The storyline is well thought out and introduces us to these and other fun and intriguing characters. I look forward to Ms. Hamilton's next book, hopefully we'll get to learn more about Warwick. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I would love an easier way to track audiobooks too. Going in the book details and scrolling through 35 versions of a book before finding an audiobook version is annoying. Please also create a DNF tag so we can easily track books we do not finish. Right now, I delete them from my shelves so i do not get credit for reading them. I would also like to pull up previous years reading challenges so i can see my trends up or down. Thank you for a great app!

So, when I wanted to link my library account, but couldn’t, I reached out through customer service expecting in a few weeks to get a canned response that tells me I’m an idiot for wanting to do what I was asking. Instead, within a day, I get a response from Mariana g. (Title is a Goodreads expert, and that is an understatement). She tells me she just added my library and gave very simple instructions. The app itself is awesome. I love that I’ve been able to track my 100s of books over the last few years. It has saved me from rereading terrible books that I’ve forgotten I've read. And I’ve gotten some great suggestions for books that might interest me. I can’t recommend this enough for beginning through heavy readers.

I especially like being able to store book notes and reactions here and to share them with others.

m0j0TX's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 8/7/18 6:52 AMThe Goodreads service used to be somewhat useful. I read a LOT, over 100 books per year, and I originally started using Goodreads so I could keep track of what books I wanted to read for when I would visit the used paperback book store. Nowadays, I mostly read books on my Kindle, and of course Goodreads was acquired a number of years ago by Amazon. I have to big complaints about the app: 1.) They present you with banner ads, and they are not even RELEVANT banner ads. Yes, you’re using their app to spoon-feed them marketing information about book-buying preferences, not to mention your hobbies and interests and tons of other golden data. Is that enough? NO! They still have to present you with cheesy banner ads like you normally see on poorly-made video games! UGH!!! 2.) Every time you finish a book, you get a s***** notification saying, “Start a conversation...share your notes on this book...blah blah blah.” When you read as much as I do, this is just irritating and annoying, and I cannot find any way to turn it off. Maybe it’s fine if you read five books a year, but when you read over 100, that’s multiple books PER WEEK, and I am NEVER going to respond positively to those notifications. Those two things right there have me *THIS CLOSE* to just deleting my Goodreads account for good. I don’t really see the value in it any more, and it appears that the Goodreads product management group is determined to k*** the goose that lays golden eggs with their invasive ads and poor user experience.

Serendipity2012's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 8/30/18 4:10 AMUnfortunately, as with most forms of social media, bullies hide behind the anonymity of a keyboard and think it’s okay to say whatever mean and nasty things they want to say about a book, an author or even readers and the app owners do nothing to discourage it. Everyone’s taste in books is different. If you read something you don’t care for, write a review and explain why, or better yet, don’t waste your time reading a book you don’t like. If you must write a review, write constructively. It serves no purpose to belittle other readers for their taste in books. You lose credibility when you attack readers instead of constructively explaining any issues you have with the subject, plot, characters etc. I listened to an audio book that I really enjoyed. Compared to many of the books I’ve recently read this was a breath of fresh air. I went on Goodreads thinking I might find fellow readers who enjoyed it only to find this app filled with as much hate and bullying as twitter and other social media. I’m very disappointed and have deleted the app. People ruin most good concepts. This is nothing but reality television in app form. Treat people with kindness. Don’t spread hate.

For example, when I get a friend request it would be nice for me to be able to go to their page and accept it instead of me accidentally adding them. I wish we could do everything that’s available if we were to be on the actually website.

Reviewed on 8/24/18 5:49 AMETA: Oh, look, an update and the homepage STILL won’t load! I’ve used Goodreads for years, and in general love it. The app, despite recent improvements, still drives me batty. The main problem is that Home (with all of my friends’ updates) takes *forever* to load, and often refuses to load at all, which is infuriating. The other problem is that when I see a book’s description in my home feed & want to read more, tapping on “read more” doesn’t simply expand the rest of the text, it takes me to the book’s main page, WHERE THE REST OF THE TEXT IS STILL HIDDEN!!!!!! I then have to click “read more” there, and then navigate back to my home feed, where the s***** app will have LOST MY PLACE and sent me back not the top! Come **ON**, Goodreads!!!

Corinea D.'s Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 8/24/18 5:27 PMThis book was an entertaining plethora of short stories with intense imagination & recognized fears. It offers humor, science fiction, expressive drama, & an intriguing array of interpretations that can be perceived in your own personal magnitude. It starts with ‘Mercy’, about an innate light on intellectual survival through an invasion of poisonous warfare & the immense possibility of other forms of existence. It ends with ‘Season Finale’, which is an explicit version of an alternative to the truth of resurrection. The author’s mind is filled with a playground of slip-n-slide ideas involving some of our worst enemies entwined in the cobwebs of a haunted forest. There are devils inside some of the featured stories disguised as angels with a twisted tilt to their glowing halo that you’ll fail to notice until the final words. Thought-provoking views inspires challenging ideas exploring unique personalities in the characters & of alternate universes. This book offers the twists & turns of a roller coaster with jolting endings to each story leaving you wanting another ride.

Story held my interest from start to finish. I had a little trouble with the Scottish vocabulary in the beginning but it was ok. Don’t be afraid, it is only used a little.

Reviewed on 8/16/18 6:12 AMI haven't had this app very long and have seen a few issues. The main issue is that the app drains my battery life quickly. Another problem is the scanner. Some books it says not found. I can search them just fine. It just takes longer. I was going through my read list and a book was added that I never even heard of. Some I hadn't rated showed that they were. I wish it was a bit easier adding books in a series to a list. Some don't have the more option so I have to click each one. At first I had skipped the challenge, but decided to give it a try. I was disappointed that I couldn't add the books I did read this year to it. Trying to go through a list it'd sometimes refresh. For the most part I like the app. I'd love to put every book I own, but that'd just take way too long.

Mmdd76's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 8/15/18 3:45 PMLa escritura de Marcelo Lillo (Chile, 1957) me hizo pensar en un rio ancho y profundo, cuya superficie registra apenas suaves movimientos. Así mismo como la vida transcurre allí en el fondo y no en la superficie, del mismo modo opera su literatura: en la profundidad del lector. Lillo, profesor de secundaria en provincias, comenzó a escribir a los 15 años pero publicó por vez primera a los 50, cuando el crítico Ignacio Echevarría supo de él en un concurso de cuentos. El escritor entonces vivió -y aborreció- la consabida fama literaria, y ello lo llevó a desaparecer del mundo editorial por 5 años, refugiado en Niebla, un pueblo a 870 kilómetros de Santiago. Su reaparición llega con De vez en cuando como todo el mundo, 30 cuentos, algunos conocidos y otros nuevos, en los que el autor despliega su capacidad extraordinaria para narrar con sencillez y austeridad la desolación, lo inevitable, de lo cotidiano. No veremos héroes ni antihéroes en estos relatos, solo vidas corrientes enfrascadas con resignación en los tópicos de existir, de amar, de perdonar, de aceptar la vida como es. Por ejemplo: un escritor que se auto publica y vende su obra de pueblo en pueblo; padre e hijo que van camino a desconectar a la madre moribunda; hermanos que afrontan el último encuentro con el progenitor desaparecido; maridos infieles consumiéndose en sus laberintos; parejas que observan tv mientras sus relaciones se apagan; un chico que encuentra su voz leyéndole a una niña moribunda: mujeres desoladas y hartas de sus vidas. Caletas, siempre caletas, en donde el aire sabe a sal y las mañanas huelen a algas. Así es el sútil y lacónico universo del gran escritor Marcelo Lillo, de seguro una aparición feliz en las letras chilenas e Iberoamericanas. ~De vez en cuando como todo el mundo. Marcelo Lillo. Edición formato digital 2018. Penguin Random House.~

NedBin's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 8/14/18 12:38 AMI am an avid user of this app. I have an extensive list of all books Read, Want to Read, etc. The issue I have is that I can’t keep updated with the next book that comes out in a series. There are currently so many books that have been out in continuation of a series that I had been reading and unfortunately I have no clue. I would LOVE it if this app was able to monitor and alert you to when a new book in a series that you are reading is released. Also, when a Series comes to an end it’s automatically placed in a “Series ended” category. Would love this option! Developer, will you or are you currently working on a way to implement an alert system in the a Goodreads app to make my above wishes come true? This would put your app at 5 stars in “my book”! :)

If nothing else the “Want to Read” feature is a great way for bookmarking books you want to read or think look interesting. And like IMDB, sometimes you find yourself just going down different rabbit holes of authors, books they’ve written, similar books, similar authors, bookmarking interesting books all along the way. Love it.

Reviewed on 8/1/18 1:42 AMThis app just isn’t as good as it could be. I primarily only use the app on my phone. My biggest issue is the Update Progress button. It’s fine when all you’re doing is updating your progress. But more than once, I’ve made the error of writing a long review of a book, clicking on the “I’ve finished this book!” button, and rated the book. When you do this, that long review disappears. I now know that need to click the “I’ve finished this book!” button, rate the book, then go to the book’s page and review it there. I also don’t like that I might get a notification when people comment on my updates, but I won’t get a notification if someone replies to something I wrote on their update. Lastly, I dislike some of the limitations within the app, such as not being able to manipulate my bookshelves unless I use the desktop site. It’s nice for keeping track of what you’ve read and for looking up books to read, but as a way to interact socially about books, it is deeply flawed.

Barbros's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 7/6/18 3:34 AMHistorical Highland Romance This historical timepiece is told from both the English and Scottish Highlanders viewpoints. The author writes is such a way that you can almost hear the Scottish brogue and her very descriptive scenes make it easy to picture life during that time period. The twists and turns of the storyline kept me interested throughout. War is declared because of the English Lord Flynn’s selfishness. Sarah escapes his cruelty during the confusion of battle and met Drew, a wounded Scot. Neither expected to find love because of their extreme anger and hatred towards each other’s heritage but were open enough to give it a chance. A nice surprise ending brings the brothers together and sets the stage for Declan’s story. To learn more about the brothers read the prequel ‘Blair’ for the backstory. I look forward to reading more about Declan and the McCall Clan.

Unless you speed read you can barely soak it in AND if you can actually read it, it disappears before you can see who said it.

I really like the percentage completed when you type in how many pages you have read. It really helped to get me to finish books quicker because I wanted to reach 100% (finished 2 books in one day bc of it). That all being said, would it be possible to have a night mode feature in the app? The white background with black text is classic and all, but having a darker background with white text is much easier on the eyes, not just in terms of looks but eye strain for those of us who do some light night perusing of new releases. Overall great app, wish I found it sooner.

douglas cole's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 7/29/18 8:48 PMThe floral arrangement of Barbara Knott’s beautiful new collection of poetry, In Every Carnation The Body of God, contains musical and philosophical meditations full of glorious creations such as “Boxwood,” a poem both elegy for grandmother “Della” and petal in the flower of theological exploration, with luminous language and visionary moments such as this: In dreams I dislodge her body from roadside layers of stone Knott’s poetry is rich in imagery and always centered on the exploration promised in its title. Like the romantic poets and writers such as Lorca, Jung, and Eliot, bouqueted in the preface, Knott takes up the search for the divine in the material world. As we see, for example, in “Fox Eyes”: Each tree begins its own big life a hundred times as big as the life of a human inside a seed small as an acorn Intertwining myth, religion, nature and true human lives, Knott leaves no stone unturned as she seeks for “The God Secret.” So, as you read these wonderful poems, find yourself entranced, like the witness in the poem “Under Closed Eyes”: fill us with desire and through the beloved lead us to more abundant life!

Hatch82's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 7/26/18 4:25 AMGoodreads is intended to combine book reading and social networking but it's better than that. I don't really use the social part of Goodreads. This app will help you find other good books and best of all help you keep track of your reading. You can mark your progress on a book and make lists of books you've read, currently reading and going to read. If anything it'll help you stay organized. I highly recommend it to avid readers or people who have a large book list.

Reviewed on 7/25/18 1:09 AMDon’t waste your time with this app. We are preparing to move from a house we’ve occupied for 10 years. As an avid reader you can imagine the amount of books I’ve collected. I created a folder and titled it “Books Packed to Move”. I had over 50 titles in that folder. I opened the app today to pack more books away and every single book I’ve scanned is GONE. With all the time I put in to scanning them, and have already packed the box, I’m devastated.
JaneDoe789's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 7/25/18 11:56 PMUpdates: I wasn’t aware that my data was shared with Facebook, and I despise Facebook! I deleted my Instagram account and WhatsApp account, and now must I delete Goodreads? Please cut off your ties with Facebook already.... I like Goodreads in general, and I like how it improved over the years! That’s being said, it’s been too many “errors” lately with this app. But the worst part is, the questions or issues that I ask/report regarding this app lately is often brushed off and it dies concerns me that they stopped listening to its users and making improvements.

I am so moved, I cried because of the messages layered and laced throughout the characters, the plot, the chapters and pages!!!

I also absolutely loved loved loved discovering Roën and his playful mannerisms right around Chapter 77!!!!! Tomi Adeyemi had such a clever way to incorporate such a fluid mischievous fun character to balance out the heaviness of Zélie’s tribulations, that appeared in the latter chapter. I am so excited to see how the amazingly mischievously charismatic Roën will play in the books to come? I highly recommend this book!!!

Kkppp2's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 7/23/18 12:40 AMLet me start off by saying, I read this book in one sitting. As a mother, I immediately felt a connection to Nina and to Tom. Both parents who wanted nothing but the best for their children. What happens though when one of your children is a spoilt, entitled, criminal. Add to that the fact, said child has a parent who will lie to get that chi,d out of trouble. I admire how Nina strives to be a “good” person and in the end is able to be the woman she strives to be. Spoiler alert: I’m glad she and Tom became best friends and were able to put their talents to good use by helping less fortunate children. It begs to question what kind of parent would we choose to be and how far would we go to protect our children.
alexanderdjr's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 7/23/18 10:47 PM...especially when compared to an app like Bookly. Amazon seems to squander its opportunity to wrap valuable data (contents of personal library, reading speeds, start date, finish date, etc.) in a fun, well designed, experience. I wish there was some way Bookly could connect to Amazon's APIs to allow access to Kindle/Audible data. Good Reads is stable and functional. Nothing more, though.

LilOne614's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 7/16/18 3:06 PMI have read some of this author’s stories and I am a huge fan. Never thought to read about MMA fighting or to even watch but the story pulls you in and makes you want to keep reading, do a little research on the sport and to see what happens when certain groups blow the whistle. In any case this story keeps you guessing and even though some of it may be a little predictable it has me curious that I want to keep reading about the characters and their outcome. Does he get the girl in the end? Does the girl walk away because she cannot handle what his profession is? Can he win a professional fight? See so many questions but you have to read the entire series to get the answers.

Ellenchka's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 7/14/18 9:11 PMIs a fine novel of a woman who has suffered tremendously as a child, but has suppressed these events and isolated herself in her work, routines and rituals as well as vodka, all of which help her ward off her feelings. Then finds the love of her life, a musician she aims to marry in spite of having no real connection to him or even others; she sets off to improve herself skin-deep thinking this will be enough. Then, she and a co-worker end up saving the life of an older gentleman who draws her into his life and family. These changes slowly open her up to interacting with others and precipitate changes which lead her to a crisis. Therapy and the people who have stepped into her life help her uncover the events of her childhood and her repressed feelings so that she can begin to heal. At the beginning of the novel, her behavior can be seen as off-putting but by the end you can see that she will make real progress in her life and emotional well-being. Nicely done.

Reviewed on 7/12/18 1:52 PMClive James’s essays provided an insightful and sometimes humorous look into how a poet reads poetry. He provides some excellent examples of attention to language and image. The essays also introduced me to some new (to me) poets from Britain and Australia. My only criticism is that I wished he had discussed more female poets—mostly because I am always on the prowl for new material to use in class. This lack he also acknowledges as such in the introduction.

Without funding from rich family and associates and a counter culture of s***** mindless faux 1960s intellectualism, these people were failures. Enjoy the movie for the crazy antics of great comic actors and not for the self loathing directors and producers.

The only thing I don’t like is the search engine - you really have to have the exact book title to get a hit. I usually google the book and then bring it into the app. One other thing is that sorting your own books is hit or miss - it does not put them in order by date correctly. Sometimes a book I just added is nowhere to be found unless I enter its exact title. So I guess that is two complaints.

The value it brings me is not just being able to create all my virtual book shelves and follow the books my friends read, but to also use it as a way to “tag” the books I want to read later. I’m so glad to have this platform just for those who read and it’s my hopes that Amazon doesn’t abandon it in lieu of larger profit making projects if only to have a place that readers from around the world can congregate virtually away from the noise of other social networks.

There are some celebrities, musicians, and also Sober bloggers that I admire and would love to see what they are reading. I think this app can be something popular if they opened it up to more celebrities or inspirational speakers. I love my friends but I want to know what Laura Mckowen, Talib Kweli, Jimmy Fallon, and more are reading. I want to see what they find as good reads for them. I also think this would expose people to more authors and help them gain more revenue for their books. So that way authors can write more books!

itsnotcastiel's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 6/24/18 3:54 AMThis app is so wonderful! I love it so much because it helps me stay organized. I’m always buying new books and I can never remember which I still need to read. This app helps me keep track of all of that and more! My only complaint is, there is a glitch when it comes to sending friend requests and following people. It seems that once you follow someone, you can’t unfollow them. Similarly, one you friend request someone, you can’t take back the request. The two actions come hand-in-hand so once you send a friend request, you are automatically following that person. I wish there were a way to unfollow and unsend friend requests. Regardless, this is an amazing app that I will continue to use. Just this one minor detail that would make all the difference. Thank you!

Reviewed on 6/23/18 9:33 PMI love to read and the idea of sharing them with my friends, but I do not think that this app works as effectively as it could. I should be able to list a book I am reading, and then transfer it to a book I have read. That is the idea, but the actual process does not work that well. I also like being able to show my reading progress, but this new classifying books into their genre is not always an easy task. Maybe it would be best for me to clear everything I have done and start again, at square one.

Reviewed on 6/21/18 6:51 PMI love this app; it’s a great way to keep track of what I’ve read and find new books to read I wouldn’t have found otherwise. However, there’s a bug that won’t let me update the date I finished books, which then affects my 2018 reading challenge because it says I haven’t read as many books as I actually did read. I’ve tried editing the dates read on both my phone and computer multiple times and in multiple ways, but it doesn’t work. Even when it does save, the date somehow gets deleted again. Edited: I received multiple developer responses apologizing for the problem. They were quick to fix the bug and were very courteous in handling the matter.

My only concern, is that I don’t get to explore much new content. I browse and I either get repeated books, or as of lately it doesn’t allow me to load more pages thru mobile. I would love to get recommended books that are different from what I am used to reading so that when Im exploring I don’t get similar plots to books I’ve already read, as well as not seeing repeated books.

hlhamiltong's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 6/11/18 8:56 AMI read this book in response to an email I received from my son’s high school. Our community has recently become aware of a suicide crisis at our high school and is struggling and scrambling to understand it and address it. I don’t remember what the email said, but it was alerting parents to the subject matter of this book due to our current crisis. (Maybe a movie was coming out about it?) Anyway, I took on the reading under the guise of parental responsibility. But mostly I wanted to arm myself with facts. Just in case those parents who wish to protect their children by avoiding difficult topics began a crusade about or against this book. I liked it. It goes in a vein of other titles I’ve read that deal with wickedly difficult subjects like, for example, Unwind by Neal Shusterman. I appreciate his storytelling format more after reading the author’s interview and the end. I plan on asking my son to read it. Because I believe knowledge is power. And this book demonstrates beautifully, yet simply, how the things we do and say impact others. It also demonstrates, just as well, the importance of standing up for yourself and asking for help when you need it. True critique? I was bothered by the quick back and forth of Hannah’s story interjected with Clay’s real-time responses. I understand the value in telling the story this way, but it really disrupted the flow. I’m still really glad I read it.

I’ve always recommended it to my friends and fellow librarians. But this year, it just seems to glitch all the time. After I’ve read a book, I faithfully record it with the date read. But then it doesn’t show up anywhere- not on my read books, nor on my reading challenge. If I do a search for it, it comes up in my books as having been read. Customer service is always so helpful, and the issue is fixed - until a few books later when it happens again. All of this is to say - I love the app. I’m just tired of the problems with it.

PinkDynamite22's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 5/8/18 6:02 AMGoodreads is a great app for tracking your reading and books. It allows you to mark books that you are currently reading, have already read, and want to read in the future. You are also able to create custom "shelves" to categorize books in other ways. The Goodreads website has many functions and the app focuses on the book shelves and reviews more than anything else. I do wish the app would allow for the full functionality of the GROUPS feature. It does offer some aspects of the Groups function but, as someone that uses that feature, I have to go to the website in order to get the full use of it. Still, the app does what it is supposed to do and it does it well. One very handy feature is the ability to add books by scanning the bar code. Again, this would be nice to use with the Groups feature. Overall, great app.
Jacqattack12's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 5/8/18 2:47 AMThis is one of my favorite apps of all time! I love having my tbr (to be read) right on my phone so I don’t forget anything when I go to the library. The scanning feature is awesome at the bookstore so I don’t have to buy books or waste space on my phone taking pictures. I also love how the app tells you the number the book is in the series, and if you tap the number the series comes up in a list so you can see all the books, it is very helpful when you see only book 2 on the shelve and you want to know where to start. The only thing is in the recent update when you tap on a book and scroll down you have other books in the series and other books by the author, but the books like this category is gone. That was how I did a majority of my browsing for books and I miss it.

I find it very useful for keeping track of books I’ve read and have a special shelf for other books that I want to avoid buying duplicates of. A To Buy shelf keeps a list of books I want to buy.

Reviewed on 5/27/18 8:59 PMI love this app but there are several things that could make it even better. I wish the “explore” option hadn’t been removed in this latest update. I also wish you could search by subject or keyword, not just the title or subject. I think it would be cool if there was a way to easily share the release date of a book with your personal calendar on your phone. And just to be picky, it would make things easier if the publication date was listed with the title on your tbr list, instead of just listing the year and having to open the title to get the actual date. Other than that I love it.

Sjellie's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 5/14/19 7:08 AMThis is my go to app for bookmarking (haha) books I want to read and check out what my friends and other people are reading. The shelves, the ability to read and create reviews, browsing for books, and creating a book challenge for the year are really nice, and it feels great to move a book from in progress to read. That said, the social aspect of the app doesn’t seem to be fully in touch with the other areas. I wish there were a way customize the feed you see. The friend list doesn’t seem to really refresh outside of when you first sync the app to your fb account, you can’t cancel friend requests, can’t unfollow people, and you still get a feed for people who are no longer exist on your friend list. The basic features work, and I guess there’s no other app like GoodReads yet, but the social features could be developed and polished more to give a more streamlined app. Apart from all wishful thinking, I am still thankful for this :)

ShotenStar's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 5/14/19 7:08 AMI’m a refugee from FictFact.com, a lovely little site that just tracked series books and presented them in order. It had a simple “all on one page” view for each series. I can find no similar view on GoodReads. Right now, if I search on “Christopher Bush”, looking for his old “Ludovic Travers” series of 30 plus books, I get something like 102 hits, presented in random order, with non-English versions mixed in. Trying to figure out what book is next in the series takes several rounds of Amazon and internet searching. Sorting by publication date is useless, since these books were originally published in 1930-1950 and have now been republished, in a sometimes random order. GoodReads needs to help readers like by including the number in the series as part of the book title and needs to have a way to filter out the non-relevant hits from a series list.

fwgal7's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 5/14/19 7:08 AMI’ve been using this for the last three years to keep track of the books I’ve read and most recently mangas. I know for a fact I have way more than 415 books and manga I’ve read since I started using this app. I’ve been going back to see if I’ve read something and random books from the series are gone from my read list. For example a manga series I just finished has 18 books. I went back to look and 1-5 is gone and 9,10 and 14 are gone too. I started this last December and ended in March so it should still be on the list but it got taken off. I use this to keep track of all my manga. Looks like nothing can beat the old school version of this app- pen and paper- after all. Sad it’s a really great app otherwise.

I love to new track of books I’ve read and what I’ve thought of them, in case a friend asks for a recommendation. I like to update what I’m currently reading as I go to see how far along I am in percentages. I also like to see what my friends have read/are reading, and what they thought of those books. I LOVE being able to make a list of books I want to read, instead of slowly typing them all out in my notes app, I can just check my list here while at the library or bookstore. However, I WISH there was a feedback submission area of the app. I’d like to be able to point out when I notice a problem. For example, I must’ve accidentally followed someone recently, but it won’t let me unfollow them. Another example, I was reading “The Help” recently and was updating it as I went. It told me I was 100% complete when I was only 90% through the book. I wish there was a feedback area so I could tell the app makers about these little problems that are probably easily fixable.

Reviewed on 5/13/19 2:44 PMI love that I can make a list of books I’ve read and those I want to read - great! A few complaints: the search function is pretty clunky, it often comes up with something other than what I’m looking for. Second, Id love to see an improvement in recommendations. I’d hoped that pretty quickly I’d be getting awesome recommendations and so far that isn’t happening. I wish i could put in a few parameters for the books I’m looking for - when they were written, by whom, and what genre (beyond the extremely rigid options provided in recommendations: bio, fiction, non-fiction). We should be able to get recommendations for ‘non fiction AND written during 2016-18 AND like this one book I liked’ And why aren’t my ‘want to read’ taken into account in my recommendations? If they are, I’m not seeing it. AND, I’d like a search function for ‘if you liked this book, try this’ instead of ‘readers also enjoyed’ because that doesn’t really give books that are down the same alley, in my opinion. Lastly, you should be able to mark a book as read and then immediately rate it. It’s silly that this has to happen in two completely separate steps.

Reviewed on 5/13/19 2:44 PMI usually never write reviews, but my life as a reader was totally changed after finding this app. I love books and always have, but life keeps you busy and you end up putting things aside. Well, this app has helped me find so many books I NEED to read, and it has helped me rediscover my love for reading! I really can’t think of anything to improve. I love the layout. I love the ability to make “shelves” to save books. It even lets you track the progress of books you’re reading. You can read your friends reviews or any reviews in general. I also love that they have a vote at the end of the year (or beginning, I can’t remember) for best books in SEVERAL genres and also have best of the best and whatnot. Browsing books by categories is also great because it’s helping me find different kinds of books so my reading list can be more diverse. The only complaint I have (which actually isn’t a real complaint) is that every time I click on this app, I find a million more books I want to read and there’s no way I can read them all in my lifetime.

It’s exactly what I needed. Thanks Goodreads! I updated my review! Original Review: I like this app. I would like to use it for its intended purpose for my own books (meaning: marking this as read, currently reading, want to read), and also keep a “shelf” of my son’s books to share with his grandparents. It is frustrating that you are FORCED to choose “read”, “currently reading”, or “want to read” for every book—I don’t want to mark my son’s books with these tags; I just want to catalog them with a shelf. I only want to use these tags with my own books... it’s annoying that I have to see his books in “currently reading” when I just want to see mine!

I also rate books on a scale of 1-5 and sometimes write reviews. You can even enter contests to win free Advanced Readers Copies of new and upcoming books. Every year, I decide how many books I want to try to read using their Reading Challenge feature, which tracks how close you are to your reading goal. I don’t see how any reader can fully enjoy and keep track of their reading without this incredibly useful app, which can also be used on the website. Try it!

I like being able to connect with friends to see what they are reading and how they reviewed. Cons: In the past couple of months, my list has been scrambled into a chaotic order. I have tried to return it to order by “date added” to no avail. I had several books marked as “want to read”. When I marked them as read, they were marked as read on the date that I put them in the “want to read” list. I like lists, and I also like order. Not there right now. And lastly: I love the quotes when you open the app. I would love to savor them and commit them to memory sometimes. However, it stays on the screen for mere seconds. Only if I had a photographic memory could I read it if it was more than 10 words long. How much trouble would it be to put a “next” button below it? Overall, I like the app, but it has some aggravating issues.

ChemicalsInTheClouds's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 5/10/18 2:58 AMFirst - let me say I love goodreads. I love how easy it is to track the books I’ve read, authors I love, etc. For a bookworm like me - goodreads is an excellent platform! I do, however, have 3 bones to pick with goodreads - 3 things I think would take goodreads from good to phenomenal. 1. New releases! Why is there not a page where you can see upcoming releases for all the series you’ve read?? I would love to have 2018 releases all consolidated in one place rather than having to rely on the want to read bookshelf that may include older books or going to each author’s page. If I’ve read all the books in a series that are currently out, I’d love to see what’s coming out this year. 2. Updating dates I’ve read books. For some reason, I tend to finish a lot of books on planes and the kindle app doesn’t upload the date I finished the book later when I connect to a network. Online, it’s easy to add those dates in later, but in the app it’s near impossible! I typically have to get on my computer or go to goodreads in the mobile browser and then select full site. It’s very frustrating and as a result, a lot of my finished books don’t have dates attached. 3. Progress on the annual reading challenge. I love that the app’s been updated to show you your progress, but what I don’t love is that it doesn’t tell you how many books ahead/behind you are like it does on the website.

Please add quizzes to your next update! And add a feature so we can create quizzes in the app as well.

Reviewed on 4/9/18 1:48 AMThis app is really helpful if you are a person who loves books and blows through them like me. This app is really good because it’s very structured. It isn’t all over the place and it’s super easy to look for books or just get some recommendations. Speaking of which, the books they refer are amazing! I’ve read some really good books that I go out to HPB and buy them so I can read them again and again without library trips. It just a nice easy app that I love to use!

AechArt3mis's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/8/18 7:39 PMFirst I am the person that uses goodreads more than anyone. I read everyday. A lot. But I had to turn off the notifications for good reads because the badge icon would never go away on my home screen. Even after looking at the alert. I see it with other book apps as well. It happens also in the interior of the app. I will check the alerts but it won’t have the badge icon go way. That’s one thing that bugs me. Also after completing selecting a book you have put as “reading” and then setting it as “read” when you go back to your library it will still show that book until you go to a different part of the app and back. Which takes time and is really annoying. One thing I think could really make this app significant to me is if I had a way to have a place where I can more better organize planning which book to read next out of the books I already have selected. When you open up your reading tab with the books you are currently reading there isn’t a way to prioritize them. Same with the want to read, the read tab is great because it already has a way to organize what you have read by when you have read it. But as a reader working on 50-100 books that are on my book shelf I would love some sort of tool that compares what I have just read to what I might next like to read that is JUST in MY library. Especially as a strategy to finish more books. I would eventually like to see more color added to the home page with comments as well and have a better design side for when a person of my friends group has written a review for a book that it can be more visible for me to read. But I want to say again, this is a terrific app. I wouldn’t be writing this much info about it when I rarely rate apps unless I loved it this much.
jenny9581's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/8/18 11:27 PMI wish there was a way to see the reading level of the books, for you to rate how hard the book was for you to read, and a way to gauge your reading level. I also wish I could move multiple books to and from lists at once. But overall I absolutely love the app.

Dangrdonna's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/7/18 6:05 PMWhat a quick but satisfying read. Adore is an almost thirty year old virgin. She didn’t plan it but there it is. Her friend talks her into a v***** dating game at her private club. Kellan is talked into going by his friend too. He’s had a difficult breakup but that was two years ago. He’s thrown himself into his work ever since. Once he sees Adore he knows it was the right choice to be there. Although I would have liked more of the relationship that developed after their memorable night together, this definitely is a great read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Safetysteveone's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/6/18 9:22 PMI read what I expected. Mrs. Clinton ownership of what happened along with her team was explained thoroughly and concise. I understand more of what happened and saddened by how our political system is so ingrained in divisive attitudes. I pray for our leadership to do what is right for our country and what is ethically right. I was a little bored listening to the constant repetition of the same situations that happened with Comey, email misunderstandings, attitudes of Trump voters and press attacks. I think if Mrs. Clinton would have used her husbands saying “it’s the economy stupid” in her own words we may have had a female President. I have a greater understanding of how Americans keep failing to progress.

Reviewed on 4/6/18 4:33 PMKevin Anderson and Doug Beason wrote Trinity Paradox, which is one of the best sci fi books I ever read. The Ill Wind book is a big disappointment. The theme is good: and oil tanker breaks apart and designer microbes are used to try to cope with the spill. It all goes wrong. They say that good editors can “remove all those parts that readers skip over”. This book desperately needed such an editor. The last 150 pages of this 550 page book were more engaging and brought my rating up to 3*.

That thing is, “Where to Find the Book Near You.” This would be helpful if you wanted to read a book but didn’t know where to find it. It would also be super helpful because you wouldn’t have to waste going to the library, only to come home without the book you were looking for. Plus, if you really wanted that specific book the app could tell you a library that has it available for pickup. You could then make it possible to reserve the book at hat library. This would be a SUPER helpful feature for this app.

It is frustrating that you are FORCED to choose “read”, “currently reading”, or “want to read” for every book—I don’t want to mark my son’s books with these tags; I just want to catalog them with a shelf. I only want to use these tags with my own books... it’s annoying that I have to see his books in “currently reading” when I just want to see mine! Goodreads: please add this option so I can use this app for myself! Right now I’m “currently reading” 50 children’s books! :(

Reviewed on 4/30/19 11:08 PMI love the Goodreads website, and the app is even better but there are a couple things I would like to bring to the developers attention. #1.

When I was messaging someone on the Goodreads chat feature, when I went to send my message it said "Send error, body can't be blank (40002)" it wouldn't let me send my message. #3. I wish the friends feature was a little easier to navigate #4. I wish you could connect it to a Nook and read inside the Goodreads app so it would automatically put in start date and finish date. If you made these improvements it would be the best app for reading! - #1 reader
Buck&De's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/30/19 11:08 PMI truly enjoyed the book due to the characters. It also had a view point of what comes around goes around. The main character, Marcy, is a tired overworked divorced women who has a truly terrible ex. The ex before divorcing her empties all of their back accounts after she puts him through his schooling to be an orthodontist. He empty’s the account designated for his daughter’s college fund and does not pay child support. He is a liar and a cheat. Marcy is glad to be rid of him, but she is upset on her daughter’s behalf as the ex ignores his daughter. The story starts with Marcy being desperate for money. She works in an casino in Las Vegas as it is a better paying job. She works double shifts just to get by. It starts with a gamer who drops a hundred dollar bill. Marcy sees it and knows she has a decision to tell the man or not. She makes the decision to tell the man and tries to give him the money back. That decision opens up a new job opportunity for her and romance. Very steamy in the s** department.

I’ve particularly enjoyed the reading goals it allows you to set and track against. However, I’ve been less than impressed with the search and discovery experience as well as the social aspect. While the annual votes Goodreads lists as well as the reviews are helpful, the site doesn’t seem to be making the most of its millions of members in terms of curating recommendations for others. My number one complaints is that the search capability couldn’t be more basic. I wish it was more flexible in terms of searching, especially in terms of them or content. For example, the types of search terms I’d expect to be supported include - ‘books where animals speak’ or ‘Harlem renaissance.’

Blake is older and a Professor. Blake is horribly scarred but still beautiful to Erin. After an incident where Erin sees more than she should the two find comfort in each other. The age gap is taboo.

Reviewed on 4/24/19 10:03 PMThe ONLY thing that would make Goodreads better, is if I could connect to my Instagram! If I could somehow share my book reviews automatically on my Instagram account, then I’d be living a dream and Goodreads would be my dream-maker!

Chirpie's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/24/19 10:03 PMI have the same issues as some others. I mark a book as read in the app and it never updates in my read books. In progress books seem to update just fine. I’d love to see that bug squashed, as it’s weird to see the last book I read in my finished books still from 2 years ago. Thanks!
Lei08's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/24/19 10:03 PMI love this app because it allows me to continue book club adventures with friends and family back home! I’ve also made new book friends across the country! I think a great feature the developers should consider would be to include library call numbers for the books as well as the ISBN. As a medical student, I can’t currently afford to continually buy book after book and rely on my public library. Being able to walk straight in with the call number in mind would be great!
MyNameIsEarlDamnIt's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/2/18 12:27 AMUpdate: It appears to have been a temporary glitch that occurred when I updated the app. After I removed the offending title and then re-added it, the problem resolved. I love the app but ever since the most recent update my reading activity isn’t updating correctly. Example: I just completed a book and it does not show up in my list of completed books and my reading challenge didn’t update from 12 read books to 13.

SBri1990's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/16/19 7:57 PMFound some amazing treasures because of this app. I love how it connects me to Kindle directly to make reading new books easy and simple. I've trusted book reviews ever since I've found tested and reliable reviewers and I always check on Goodreads before making a book purchase or library rental. Because there are so many books out there and so little time, you really have to choose wisely what you're going to spend your time on. I also like how I can see what my friends are currently reading and they can make their own type of shelves.

scw2889's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/16/19 7:57 PMGoodreads is such a great platform for being able to track the books I’ve read, books I want to read, and challenge myself to read more each year. The only thing preventing me from giving this 5 stars is that I wish you could rate books with half stars (4.5 stars, 3 stars, etc.). So many people in their reviews of books say they are rating a book with half stars, and I also often find myself wanting to give a half star rating to bump up (or occasionally down) a book I’ve read. I feel like that would be a feature a lot of people would really appreciate. Other than that, a fantastic app! One of my most used.
Laurielv's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/16/19 7:57 PMI thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. The story line was so interesting. Natalie, the main character, is in a coma. While she is unable to communicate with anyone in any way, she can hear everything going on. A pretty horrifying dilemma! The characters in this book are fun, quirky, and all fit together and complement each other so well. The mystery that the story centers around keeps you guessing for quite a while. Just a good, enjoyable book to curl up with!

Mecsjh's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/16/19 7:57 PMI have, as I’ve grown older, bought a new book, only to discover I’ve read it before. Believe me, I read the back and the first several pages of books before I buy them. That worked when I was younger, but these days I’d need to read a chapter or two. This app, on my phone, help me prevent that.

amha252's Review of Goodreads
Reviewed on 4/16/19 7:57 PMI love the app but I love the website more. I love entering the giveaways. I can only enter giveaways on the website not using the app? Using the “contact us” link on the app, I questioned where to find the giveaways page on the app. I never received a response to the question. I probably received a confirmation email that I sent the message but no response to the email was received.

Reviewed on 4/12/18 5:23 PMLove the concept of goodreads, and have been a member for the past year. However, lately when I go to click on my friends, or anywhere off of a main page really, the app logs me out and makes me log in. I’ve deleted and redownloaded the app twice now and it continues to do this. I’m not sure if this is just a bug but if there could be a solution to this that would be great.
