Although I hear many people talking great things about Goodreads, I feel there isn't as much to offer as much as others suggest. I have Goodreads and I have been using it for nearly three years now but the only thing I use it for is tracking what books I read in the year. You can create a reading challenge where you set yourself a target of how many books you want to read in the year and Goodreads will track it and let you know whether you are in schedule or not.
As useful as that is, I can't say I use Goodreads for much else. I have a few friends on there who recommended it to me in the first place and a few Facebook friends. But that's it. No one really adds me and I don't really know how to find other people.
There a supposedly groups that you can join but my app will not let me do it. I have tried reinstalling the app and contacting Goodreads about the issue but they never got back to me.
It is also different on the internet as it is in the app so it would be wise getting the app if you want the full benefit off Goodreads.

I love using Goodreads. It helps me keep track of all of my reading year by year. I like being able to see my yearly progress and compare it to previous reading years. You can follow other users and keep updated on what they are reading and thinking about a book. Along those lines Goodreads is a great way to keep up to date with your favourite authors, publications dates, cover releases. Basically anything you could want. The app is very easy to navigate and simple to use. The website has more options. For example stats, giveaways, finding book groups. Goodreads do lots of book giveaways for free. No review needed to win.
My only gripe is you can only rate a book up to 5 stars. This doesn’t give you a lot of leeway. For example I recently read a book that was not as bad as others I had rated 3 stars but not as good as my 4 star ratings. So what should I do? That is just me being picky. Goodreads is a fantastic way to keep track of you reading and if you are an avid reader I would highly recommend using Goodreads.
