Goodreads Avis 190

I love Goodreads! They helped me find my new favorite books!

-The Backrooms by Morgan Solis AND Yellow WallPaper A CLASSIC!!!!!

I highly recommend it due to their community and underdog finds!

Very shady company who make a big deal about protecting reviewers, but don't take any action once authors breach their policies.

An author posted a message threatening me on Goodreads when I gave a justified one star review on their book. Goodreads have a policy against this but they took no action against the author. Goodreads told me to repeatedly send in my complaint 4 times (without explaining why I had to do this, surely one submission is sufficient) but didn't bother to reply to any of them, just ignored me.

I find it funny that they support banned books given they've censored some of my reviews. Hence, I deleted my account and never visited there again.

very good site, and i hope you develop it more

I have discovered a lot of great books since joining goodreads. The app is 99% reliable.

Elsker denne app, alle burde være på den. Man kan følge med i sine egne bøger på et mega inspirerende måde, der gir dig lyst til at læse mere og det er nemt at holde styr sine bøger. Også sjovt at se hvor ens venner er osv.

I wanted to give a good review - but they have reviewers on their site who are offensive to other reviewers all the time, but get away with it because some 'like' their posts, and they actually review regularly. Very soon only those reviewers will be left because you can sense that others are fed up with being sworn at all the time if they disagree. If this is what Goodreads want, then OK - they can do without me.

Avoid, purchased a book (£90) money taken the 13 days later they cancel the order for no reason and price increased by £30!!!!! Still waiting for my money!!!!

Easy to figure out and has a great user experience. I've used it as an author and as a reader. I'd give it one more star but sometimes the site is glitchy and needs an update or two.

Other than that, their customer service is SO prompt and kind!

I am livid at the fact they removed my negative review in a controversial book. I’ll write that same review again and again. You can’t just delete bad reviews because everyone hated something.

I can not understand how can I earn money by writing rewies

I purchased Goodreads using my Apple Pay. However, all I could view was advertisements and could not get back to the book that I was reading after I purchased it.
It is for purchasing advertisements only.

I was asking for literal years about how to browse on their site the most effective way. Sending links, images… detailed explanations of what I was encountering and to get a solution. All I can say is after months and months of trying, talking to different staff and advisors, that none of them have a clue about their own website! They were all like oh yes we see how that would be useful to have, yet they had it all along! So all while my queries were valid, they never actually tried to find a solution or to go through the effort of clicking on the links or information provided and to find a work around for me, had they, it wouldn’t have took 18+ months of my own trial and error to figure it out myself. Which could’ve all been avoided. I mean, it is their website afterall.. and their lack of knowledge regarding it is disgusting. Pagination limit my ar*e, I just needed an account. You would’ve knew this if you went out your way to see try find where the extra pages were and upon doing so would’ve been able to advise me, yet you couldn’t find the time! But found enough to send generic mindless emails back and forth which ultimately got me no where. Waste of time.

Other than that, Goodreads is a solid 4/5. But their customer service brings it to a 2 unfortunately. Most your staff all need retraining.

I have read reviews that are false; they bear little resemblance to the book I've been reading. I believe it's the result of some clever bot scheme. Here's the story of one of the reviewers who praised a pathetic, clumsily-written book:

She posted 19 reviews today, Oct. 15th; She has posted 82 reviews in the past 5 days, which would average out to 5,986 books a year. She posted 209 reviews the day she joined Goodreads, and then took a year and 7 months off to catch up, then posted 108 books on one day, most of them not rated (?).

What a story awaits the author who wants to pursue this reviewer!

Goodreads has failed to retract multiple Empty #ReviewBOMBS and False information that is masqueraded by "Librarian Edits" of corruption and illegal violation of Trade Laws on my account!

'FLORIDA RETIREMENT IS MURDER' is being attacked by Illegal and Violation of Trade Secret slander assaults from paid Publishing Industry Executives responsible for the corruption of Ranking & Control #REVIEWBOMB data that is unethical competition and foolish childish bully tactics on a failed social media platform #Goodreads (An Amazon Company)

A Disabled Gentleman with Multiple Amputations, Birth Defects and Deformities living an Honest life to the best of my abilities and serving my Fans with a High Quality Retail Product that is currently averaged at 4.4++ Global Market Rankings on all Retail Platforms.

You can do better #Amazon

I can't claim any of my books because someone with the same name as me already has a GoodReads account, so all books published under that name are automatically added to her profile. Since GoodReads are apparently so stupid they have no process at all for two writers having the same name.

Do not sign up to this site.
They will send you emails after you delete your account and unsubscribe from emails.
Complete pain in the backside.

Mi piace l’app e la uso per tenere traccia dei libri letti. Alcune cose potrebbero essere migliorate, ad esempio il “cerca amici” potrebbe essere più immediato e mi piacerebbe che ci fosse anche un pulsante “ho abbandonato” nei libri in lettura, è uno scaffale “libri abbandonati”. Per me sarebbe top!

In my experience, GoodReads is not user-friendly, and the website has crashed multiple times.

By now, GoodReads should have updated the site where only your newest book cover will be shown, not multiple book covers shelved for the same book.

GoodReads has a lot of trolls who purposely give fake ratings on your books. My books had high ratings; then all of a sudden, I found a bunch of one-star ratings on my books. I did report this to GoodReads, but they won't do anything about it. If you’re an indie author, please be aware of this.

I just noticed that Good reads has all of your reviews and comments on every book on google, this is a major breech of my privacy, as I do not want the whole world to see my private reading and comments. This is not good enough and I have emailed them to take them down.
