“I Love It!”

Marietta M.
3/16/23

If you're a book fan, like I am, you'll love this site, too! You can look for a review of a book you want to read and fins out what others think about it. You can review books yourself and give your honest opinion, You can become a member of the site (it's free) and join groups that share your interests and you can also try and locate books that have eluded you, because you forgot the title and/or author, and you just may find what you're looking for! I ought to know: with help from people on the site, I found two novels I'd pretty much given hope of ever locating! Now that I know the titles and authors, I've found one online, the other at Amazon! Without Goodreads, I'd still be searching. Like I said, I love it!

“Can review an unreleased book…”

Sky B.
4/27/22

How can they really allow you to rate an unreleased book and allow the review to say "dumb liberal author. Used to like him but hate him now because he's a libtard" Terrible app/site. I wouldn't recommend believing their reviews. Ps. Even their staff don't care about this tactic as if you report to remove literal spam they'll say you were in the wrong.

Except for having an astonishing library, this site has good service for finding reviews of books. Usually, before start reading, I like to check others opinion on a book. Using this service I found the 2 most important features for me - an easy way to find a book of my interest and checking reviews of others on it.

Good resource but doesn't seem developed by the owner, Amazon, much at all. Sometimes you find great books to read just by seeing books that are related to your existing collection. That's a great way to browse and discover the many Millions of books that exist.

I really enjoy reading books in the app because since they have a large variety of books of different categories and its hard to get bored there.

After reading reviews of Goodread on SiteJabber, I paid a visit to the website. It is indeed a very good website for book lovers. It is going to be my preference for books now.

Like your personal book club - I really like this site. It's been a great way to see what my friend's are reading and get some insight into a book before I purchase it. So far, it's helped me make smarter purchase choices, and I haven't regretted the books I've bought after reading the reviews on goodreads. Plus, you can add friends and read their reviews, so if you trust their taste, it helps you out too. You can also search for reviews of books that you may be considering, or search by genre.
