Share Good Reads with Your Friends

Gr_logoHave you ever wanted a better way to see what your friends are reading, keep track of what you've read and would like to read, and get great book recommendations from people you know? If so, check out Good Reads, a site dedicated to helping you do all these things. I'm just finding my way around now, you can see my (very short at this point) profile here. It's very easy to add books, post your reviews, list what you're planning to read, etc. If you join, let me know so we can link up.

I requested to add you as a friend too! I've been busy entering books, but I might just have to start new instead of going back in time! I did make sure that all of my book club reads are in there though!

Have to tried Shelfari.com? It's a great site to do this same thing. The web design makes it very easy to use and attractive as well.

Hi Karen,
I do shelfari - all these services are rather addictive aren't they? And fun.
I'm JET on shelfari in case anyone who reads this blog would like to be a shelfari friend of mine.

Who is Book Club Girl?

  • Book Club Girl is: a member of a book club and an avid reader who spent most of her childhood immersed in a book, an English major who considered library school until she realized it was all about computers, so turned to publishing, where she now works (but she vows to talk about books from all over and not to simply flog those from her own house). She was single, lived in the city, met a man, moved to the 'burbs, and is now a wife, a stepmother, a mother, and in her spare time, a fledgling blogger dedicated to sharing great books, news and tips with book club girls everywhere.

My Review Policy

  • I review fiction and nonfiction that is appropriate for book clubs. This includes literary and some women's commercial fiction as well as memoir and narrative nonfiction. I do not review self-help, thrillers, mysteries, horror, or fantasy. I have a fondness for YA literature and while the blog is not devoted to it (well, except for my obsession with the Betsy-Tacy series), I will occasionally review some YA books. The best way to reach me to request a review is to email me at bookclubgirl AT gmail DOT com.
