Hazel2019 I‘m switching gears in 2023 and deep reading some classics with the Hardcore Literature Book Club 😁 so less quantity, more quality! 1y
TheDaysGoBy Ugh, I have no idea what to put this year. I had done so good in 2020 and 2021 that I decided to stretch myself a little this year, which majorly backfired on me. I ended up reading like half my goal - my reading really took a hit this year. But now it‘s like, do I challenge myself to get back to where I used to be or lowball 2023? 😂 1y
Kappadeemom @Hazel2019 that‘s a good plan! 1y

Kappadeemom @TheDaysGoBy I didn‘t hit my goal either but I also had some job transition so I‘m going to try for 200 in 2023. 1y
TheDaysGoBy @Kappadeemom I always think it‘s amazing when people read 100 or more books in a year. My best year I think was 36 books 😂 It‘s so mind blowing to me but that‘s so awesome! What a feat! 1y
mrp27 I always start with the minimum of 52. I usually go above but always strive for the minimum of a book a week. 1y
mom_of_4 Im going for 100. 1y
jewright My goal this year was to read 150, and I‘ve made that. I haven‘t decided what I want to do for 2023. 1y
Kappadeemom @jewright congrats!!! 1y

Since joining Goodreads I have marked this 👿 number of books as read.

Among them 200+ books since joining Litsy.

@Clwojick - I'm reading 7 books at the moment, more or less.

KnjiskiZmaj Hibernating!?!😂😂😂 6y
julesG @LordAntonio90 Books I started and then put aside, but definitely want to finish one day. 6y

BOOK FAIRIES OF LITSY! Goodreads and the BF Headquaters have declared SEPT 18th to be #hideabookday and I will certainly follow the call. I hope I'll see many drop-offs on Litsy too 🙏#ibelieveinbookfairies #bookfairiesoflitsy

Heideschrampf PS: Does anyone have experience with weatherproofing your fairy books? 7y
Buechersuechtling @Heideschrampf I would put each book in a freezer bag. (Maybe with a label on or in it saying "I'm a fairy book.") 7y

So... Litsy has definitely helped me to read more. I know several of you read more than 100 books a year but I struggled to make it to my goal of 25 books last year. So this is progress for me. I'm thinking of upping my number. Yay! Also, this is all I use GR for. It wasn't a very intuitive app so I never learned how to use it otherwise. Maybe I need a tutorial?

Jennick2004 I just like that it keeps track of the books I've read so if I'm ever wondering did I have read one I can just check :) 7y
LauraBeth Nice! 🎉🎉 7y
dariazeoli I mainly use it to keep track of reads, TBRs, and for its shelving feature. I'm really bad about participating in groups and remembering to like quotes! 7y
BookishBelle Thanks y'all! @Jennick2004 @LauraBeth @dariazeoli Sorry for the late reply. I've been traveling for work. Glad to hear I'm not the only one! 7y

I haven't put this out here for a few months, and we have a lot of new Littens who have become excellent bookish friends 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻! If anyone would like to connect with us on Goodreads, you can find me at www.Goodreads.com/jasonvigorito and @BookBabe at www.goodreads.com/jenbissu. 😎👍🏻

Andrew65 Whilst I have a presence on Goodreads I don't really use it, and not forgiven them for what they did to Shelfari which I loved! (edited) 7y

Can someone explain to me why I should keep up with my Goodreads account when I find Litsy easier to use? I opened good reads in 2013, got overwhelmed, and stopped using it. Input welcomed!

Maike I use Litsy way more often than goodreads, but I still find it easier to keep track of my tbr list(s) on there. Also, stats 😅😇 7y
Captivatedbybooks I literally only use it as a fast reference to update progress and keep track of books read. I prefer litsy 7y
JPeterson I use Litsy for more of the community, book recs, ect and Goodreads to keep track of what I read and my tbr list (though I don't always remember to add what I stacked here to gr). 7y

drokka Like most of the other replies so far, I don't socialize on goodreads. I use the site to organize, compile, track, and reference. If I could get all that from another site, I'd be long gone from there. Litsy, has an excellent platform for the socializing part, so that's where I do that. 7y
LauraBrook Same here! I use gr for tracking books I've read (and reading friends reviews). I socialize here and on LibraryThing, and LT is where I track my personal library too. 7y
BethM I'm tracking my books in a journal this year because I'm participating in my first ever challenge with #Litsyatoz so your input had been helpful! That has worked out fairly well so I can't see entering it all in somewhere. As for cataloging what I own, that would be overwhelming so I doubt that I'll ever do that lol. I was concerned that I was missing something over on GR, but it doesn't necessarily seem so. 7y
Wife I only use GR to browse for books. My TBR is only current on Litsy. GR is more cumbersome to navigate. 7y

I'm a little confused as to why The Marvels by Brian Selznick doesn't get counted towards my reading goal? It counts as a book read but not on my goal list. It's not a reread (though that doesn't matter anymore anyway) 🤔Weird.

Maike I've had that bug since January I guess. All my February books got counted but do not appear on that list. It's only in the mobile version though, it works fine in a browser. 7y
haileybean Thanks @Maike. I rarely check the browser version, and if we're being super honest. I rarely check the app at all. I have a pseudo-bullet journal I keep, I checked GR to double check my math 😂 7y

Is anyone else getting followed by an unusual number of spam trolls on Goodreads? No, I don't want to buy an iPhone or see your "sexy" pics. GTFO. *sigh* THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS!

britt_brooke Oh no! Not yet, but damn, that's disappointing. 7y
britt_brooke I spoke too soon. I just opened GR and some weight loss spam account had started following me. This makes me SO MAD. 7y

britt_brooke I just took a screen shot and reported it. It's pathetic. 7y
Kristy_K Yes! I got one this morning. @britt_brooke good idea! I'm going to do the same. 7y
MicheleinPhilly @britt_brooke @Kristy_K I've blocked and reported them all too and I'll continue to do so. 7y
Reagan Oh jeez, I don't go on Goodreads too much anymore. That sounds awful. 7y
LauraBeth It's been disturbing - I've had to block them. 7y
moranadatter Not that I've noticed, but I'll keep an eye out and report as necessary. 7y
LeahBergen I have my Goodreads account set to private because of stuff like this. 😡 I would much rather just leave it open. 7y
Cinfhen I haven't noticed but that's horrible 😤 7y
MicheleinPhilly @LeahBergen I just changed my account settings. I don't need GR to become a place I avoid too. 7y
MicheleinPhilly @britt_brooke @MyNamesParadise @Kristy_K @LauraBeth I actually got a response from GR. They've removed the accounts I reported and said they are aware this has become a problem. They said they're actively working on deleting spam accounts and to keep reporting them. 🤞🏼 7y
britt_brooke 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 7y
Kristy_K @MicheleinPhilly Good! Thank you for the update. 🙂 7y
TieDyeDude @MicheleinPhilly How do you block and report? I could not find how to do that this morning... 7y
MicheleinPhilly @GoodForCirculation To block go to the user's profile and scroll to the bottom. You'll see a link to "Block This User." To report you can send an email to support [at] goodreads.com. 7y
