I am nearly finished building an Author Page on Goodreads, the book readers’ social media website where readers show the books they have read, purchased, and want to read someday. Goodreads also provides a way for readers to learn about authors, what they’re about, and other books they have written.
The idea for Goodreads came when its founder, Otis Chandler, was browsing his friend’s bookshelf, and expanded the idea to include the ability for readers to write reviews of books they had read. I somehow am late to this particular party, having read numerous books over the years. Once I finish my current writing project, I’ll try and spend a bit of time each week adding books I’ve read to Goodreads, and will write reviews of some of them.
