I'm a little behind, so I'm temporarily skipping week 3 and moving straight to week 4. Sorry if this confuses anyone!
Assignment 1
I've been a member of Goodreads for a while now, but usually just put books in the three shelves that already existed: read, to-read, or currently-reading. Today, I added: fluff (for all of those just fluffy stories I don't really have any deep thought or feeling toward), action-and-or-thriller, children, classics, historical romance, paranormal romance, suspense-thriller-romance, librarian-character, non-fiction, and teen. Using just these labels, I was able to shelve/cross-shelve 97% of all of the titles already on my list.
Making friends with my colleagues was pretty easy, especially if people used their real names or their BCPL email address.
In Goodreads, I recommended "You Belong to Me" by Karen Rose to Tina P. because looking at her shelves, I deduced that she enjoys romantic suspense and fast paced stories. As an added bonus, this romantic suspense thriller is the first in a series set in Baltimore!
My revelations, impressions, discoveries about exploring Goodreads this week? It's easy to get lost in and lose time. The ads on the pages are helpful, but in the way of candy in the check-out aisles at the grogery stores; I keep adding things to my list of "to-reads". As my blog title says: Too many books, not enough time! :-)
