bot reviews 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!

I am reading the negative reviews and… I am reading the negative reviews and cracking up a bit. Goodreads doesn't claim to offer reading books online for free. Also, I'm pretty sure that would be illegal. I personally love the app, it generates accurate suggestions based on the books I've read. However, I can tell there are some technical flaws on their end, the app crashes often and is slow in general. Either way, it's free so I can't complain much.

Bon: The Last Highway I recently purchased Bon: The Last Highway by Jesse Fink. What a fantastic book. Not only did I learn a lot about Bon Scott, but also the music industry & all people's views & opinions were expressed. This was not a one-sided opinion piece, it was very broad, informative & soberingly honest, making the reader think as well as enjoy the content. I commend Mt Fink's bravery in getting this out into a second edition, telling more of what should be well known but isn't.

Horrible Horrible! The app has serious security issues and I deleted my profile. I keep getting spam emails from Goodreads and I unsubscribe every time, but to no avail. They keep spamming me. Serious warning if you don’t like being bombarded with unwanted email: have nothing to do with this app!
