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

Ooh, I've just come across this thread and have joined the group. I'm stuck in a bit of a literary rut at the moment so I'm hoping to get some recommendations. Please feel free to add me as a friend (unusual yet oddly common sounding name).

Abcinthia · 25/02/2012 19:52

I think I added you SilverMachine :)

SilverMachine · 25/02/2012 21:03

Yes, thank you Smile I have just added The Somnambulist to my 'To Read' list. I love modern gothic fiction and it sounds like an amazing debut.

juneybean · 25/02/2012 21:12

If you don't become one, throw me a message and I can edit any books you like Grin but do apply!

Welcome to our group SilverMachine!

I've just joined (or asked to join?)

Also added the two links as friends on this thread (in case you are wondering who the randomer request is!!)

Please bear in mind I am a really really REALLY slow reader!!!

Hello! (waves exscitedly) I've just asked to join.
Only just started getting back into reading now LO is a little older, although not getting through books as fast as I used to to (time and tiredness!)

offmystomachstillis · 30/03/2012 08:32

excitedly lol

Teladi · 30/03/2012 08:39

I have also joined. I like Goodreads but haven't got quite 'into' it yet, hopefully being part of a community type group will help!

NoraHelmer · 30/03/2012 08:40

Welcome to the group. Do I call you stomach or off?:o. Look forward to chatting to you. What sort of books do you like to read? Are you reading The Marriage Plot by Jeffrey Eugenides for MN's April bookclub? Some of us will be reading it, and some not :). See you over on Goodreads.

NoraHelmer · 30/03/2012 08:43

Oh, and welcome Teladi too :o. See you on Goodreads. This is great - our group is growing quickly :).

juneybean · 30/03/2012 17:41

Hi

I'm new to mumsnet but I joined Goodreads a couple of months ago. Was finding it a bit difficult to navigate so haven't used it much however, I'd love to joing your group over there too.

NoraHelmer · 31/03/2012 18:48

Welcome to the group Lillyreader :).

Lillyreader · 03/04/2012 18:02

Thanks! Nice to be here. :)

IamtheSnorkMaiden · 04/04/2012 23:39

I'm on it but not a big fan.

IreadthereforeIam · 05/04/2012 08:12

I've joined, if that's ok Grin. I've been using Goodreads up until now to record what I've read and to follow some of the authors that I like. It would be good for me, I think to read some different books. I was in a book club, but had to give it up for work Sad. I look forward to joining in!!

NoraHelmer · 05/04/2012 09:16

Welcome to the group Iread :)

Snork - feel free to join our MN group - the more the merrier :).
