Thrilled, that’s what I felt when I first saw you.
Hi!, is what you somehow said when you first know me.
Enthusiasm, that’s who I am as I discover you.
Good luck!, you somehow utter as you know me more.
Lull, that’s who I am sometimes to you.
Hey! Be back, you somehow say as you look for me.
Don’t worry, that’s what I would tell you.
Why?, you may ask me.
Treasured, yes that’s you.
I’m just here, you may tell me.
Yes, I know, I’ll say to you.
‘Kay, will wait, you say to me.

DAY 33 of 50 Days of Gratefulness
After sharing the must-read classics for 2016, I am now expressing my gratefulness to Goodreads. Yes, you’re reading it right.
The poem above is about me and Goodreads. 🙂 It is a brief description of my presence and most of the time absence to that lovely site.
Nonetheless, I am grateful for the site who lists down my treasured books!
I may or may not be there, but surely Goodreads is on standby mode, waiting for my updates!

ooo maybe i need to go on there…

Yes! 😀 It is a great site for book lovers, and I believe you can also put your novel there! 😀 (I just don’t know how!) But it is an effective way to reach more readers. On a reader side, it is a great site to monitor your book reads and to discover more books! 🙂

Not promote like advertise, but you can reach out to more readers. 🙂 I don’t know how to apply to be a goodreads author but there is something like that, too. 🙂
Try it. 🙂

Thank you Rosema! I reached out to them and I just received confirmation that my application to be a Goodreads author was accepted. Now I just have to configure my author account and figure out how to reach readers 🙂 Thank you so very much for this. 🙂

Thank you for such an awesome comment, Irene! 😀
Do you have the same relationship with Goodreads? 😀 I am mostly absent there and I am honestly more active here. 🙂 How about you?
And, you are AWESOME, too!

Yes I do! 😃 I mostly use it to keep track of the books I’m reading. I also like to look back on what I’ve read during the years. Discovering new books is awesome too. 😊
I’m way more active here than I am there! 😃 There are times when I decide to be more active goodreader but I always fail. I’m OK with that though. 😃

Haha! We do the same! I love goodreads for the reasons that you love it, especially the year stats! 😀
And I can’t be active with that, too! 😀 I don’t know why! 😀
