Goodreads on Kindle

Connect to the world's largest community of readers with Goodreads on Kindle, where you
can see what your friends are reading, find book recommendations, and keep track of what
you've read and want to read. Tap the Goodreads button
on the toolbar to get started.
You will be prompted to sign in to Goodreads or create a new account if you did not do so
when setting up your Kindle.
When you log in with an existing Goodreads account, your account data will sync with your
Kindle, including your friend list and your Want to Read, Currently Reading and Read
shelves.
When you create a new account, you will have the opportunity to add Facebook friends and
choose Readers to Follow. If you connect using your Facebook account, any Facebook
friends who are also on Goodreads will be automatically added to your Goodreads friend
list. The more friends and readers you follow, the more book recommendations you will see
in your Updates.
Keep track of what you're reading by adding books to your Goodreads shelves. When setting
up your account, you will be directed to a list of your Amazon book purchases, both digital
and physical. You can rate books you've read from one to five stars. Rating a book adds it to
your Read shelf. You can also tap the Shelf icon
to shelve the book as Currently Reading
or Want to Read. Shelved and rated books are publicly visible on your Goodreads profile.
You can always remove a shelved book later by tapping the Shelf icon
and selecting
Remove from Shelf.
Goodreads on Kindle has three tabs located in the top corner:
Updates: View recent updates from friends and readers you follow, including book reviews
and what they're currently reading. You can like and comment on any review. You can also
rate and shelve books in your Updates feed. Tap on a book cover to read more reviews. Tap
on a reader's name to view their Goodreads profile and more books on their shelves.
