I'm on GoodReads as well! I love it because it tells me how many books in my personal goal I have left :) Plus I stalk my friends to see what books they have read as well :)

Same here. But I only have maybe 2 friends who use it so I don't have much stalking to do! 8)

Goodreads is how I get most of my recommendations, to be honest.

I barely use Goodreads. The app came already on the tablet but I never use it. It's kind of useless to me.

I've been using Goodreads since I was in high school. I like having all my books logged and being able to create custom shelves. And since I faithfully update it, I can always find the title of a book that I've read previously which is a huge plus for me. I hate remembering a book but being unable to recall the title or author.

I've been a member of goodreads since February of 2014 and I love it! I love that they have an app so I can participate on the fly. I love that their user face is welcoming, helpful, and inviting. Also, I love that the communities are so large and helpful. Being part of their groups gives support as well as amazing conversation into the books.
It's Always Worth the Read.

I use goodreads but what I don't like is how they list their reviews. They list the most popular user first or the user who has the most reviews with comments on, so you find yourself reading the same person's reviews all the time and hardly anyone sees yours.
