Milestones for Goodreads
Personally, I find goodreads almost as hard as Librarything to navigate, but it's obvious that the fault is mine, because the figures in the infographic above are really impressive.
The home page of my website http://joan.druett.gen.nz has my contact email address (druettjo@yahoo.com.au). I have to admit I have never thought of having a contact page, as people seem to be able to get in touch easily enough. Happy New Year, and thanks for the suggestion, which I will bear in mind.
I don't find Goodreads perfectly intuitive either. Part of my issue is my reading habits. I have several books open at once, and pick up the one that interests me most at any given moment. I don't think about Goodreads until I've finished one (more usually more than one) and then I need to enter several books at a time. Which, having not done that in several weeks, I forget the nuances and need to relearn how to navigate all over again.
Thanks for that - it's so reassuring to know that someone else has the same problem. My own desk is covered with books, and I doubt I will ever have the patience to work out yet again how to log in, let alone post reviews.
Do you have a contact page for readers to contact you about your books? I didn't see one. Thanks.
