Bookface: (like Facebook for books :)

So the social network that is like Facebook for books is actually called Goodreads.com. 

I have been a member for about a year and these are the reasons why I love it:

• All my scrappy little booklists have been compiled onto one place online. Before I was on Goodreads I tried to keep track of the books I wanted to read by simply remembering them (not very effective), by saving them on the notepad on my phone (I remember to look at that like twice a year), and on scrubby pieces of paper stuffed in between the receipts in my wallet. Now when I discover an intriguing new book I simply add it to my "To read list"!
• Your friends can recommend books for you. In the past, my siblings and friends often forgot to tell each other when we discovered a new literary gem. Months or even years later we'd be talking and say, "oh yeah, I read a really good book last year. It was called... uh..." 
• You can see what your friends are reading. Even if people don't get around to recommending good books to each other, interesting titles that they are reading come up on the newsfeed.
• You can write reviews for the books you read. Go ahead! Discover the secret pleasure of becoming a book critic and breaking down pros and cons of the plot, characters, writing style, whatever - it is much fun.
• Goodreads send me a newsletter each month about new books my favorite authors have written. Hello! That's amazing!
