Does any one use Goodreads? Do we have our own MN group on there at all?

Thanks, juneybean and abcinthia, for explaining. I used to have a useful teenage son at home to explain such things : )

You might also get emails about what friends are reading/their progress in books depending on what your email settings are.

I really like seeing what everyone on my friend's list is reading or their reviews. My wishlist has grown loads Grin

Just adds them to your main page so you can see what we're all reading and see if any of the books interest you Grin

I joined Librarything a while back but I never really got into it. Maybe I'll try and give it another go.

MayCanary · 19/01/2012 12:06

Joined and going to read!

TwoIfBySea · 17/01/2012 17:59

I have to admit to going on the site, adding books and little else. So now I've joined the group I had better participate then, eh?

I am on Goodreads but haven't used it much as can be a bit USA dominated,will join the group though it will reinvigorate me!

I haven't started reading it and probably won't for a week or two (I've got to finish two others I'm currently reading). I've read a few of Antonia Fraser's books before and I have always found them to be be excellent, so I have high hopes for The Weaker Vessel.

NanAstley · 28/12/2011 00:05

The Weaker Vessel sounds very interesting! Is it good?

Abcinthia · 27/12/2011 13:59

I got The Weaker Vessel by Antonia Fraser for my birthday. I've been having a look on Amazon at books but I just can't decide what I want.

Anyone been given any great new books? I've just bought lots for myself, some in the Kindle sale (I did get a substantial Amazon voucher) and some from the charity shops and bargain bookshop here.
