Week # 4 Good Reads

Goodreads is a free website for book lovers. Imagine it as a large library that you can wander through and see everyone's bookshelves, their reviews, and their ratings. You can also post your own reviews and catalog what you have read, are currently reading, and plan to read in the future.
I have had a good browse through this site and yes I can imagine a lot of our patrons enjoying this website. By selecting the books that you have enjoyed reading, it is quite amazing the number of people who feel exactly the same!
I think a lot of people would enjoy communicating with like minded people about books and being able to receive and reccommend good reading to others.

Good points, McNana! GoodReads can act as a valid readers' advisory tool for those looking for readalike titles/authors or as a social networking reading site, too. Glad to read that you think our users would like this website, too :) YAY! You've finished week 4. Wowsers heh
