I love Sophie Kinsella, but I don't "have" goodreads. Isn't goodreads a website? How do you "have" it?

Sorry. I'm showing my age, aren't I?

I've been on goodreads, looking for recommendations, and I don't really understand how it works. I was very confused by it.

Its ok. I meant do you have a goodreads account.

On goodreads you add books you've read, want to read, and have book challenges. Discuss with other people. Enter in giveaways. You can download the app to your phone, might be easier to navigate.

Yeah... I don't have a smart phone. Or a cellphone of any kind.

But thanks! If I ever get one, I'll look into it.

You can just use the website too. Create an account and navigate the different book shelves.

Shelves are there so you can add a "Currently Reading", 'Books you own", "Books you want to read" etc.

It's basically your own personal catalogue and there are forums to chat, post reviews, add friends.

Yeah, like Tina said, anything really.

You can also follow Authors and be updated when they have a release coming.

I once followed an author of some horror books I like (for tweens to read) and I liked one ending twists so I was able to write him a message on Goodreads and he wrote back. So it can be fun that way if authors are on there too!

Yeah, I was surprised when I got an approval from Dan Brown to friend him!

Are there any non-American authors on there as well?

It's a worldwide used site so I would assume yes. Is there a specific author(s) you're curious about?

Almost end of this thread, title suggestions:

Book Lovers #18: "Reading gives us someplace to go when we have to stay where we are."– M. Cooley
