I used to like Goodreads as a way to keep track of books I read...that was 20 years ago. But shortly before it was bought by Amazon, I noticed that the app wasn't working as well as it used to. Plus, there were all sorts of problematic bullying and other weird issues. And then Amazon bought it. Not only did nothing improve but now it has the stain of Bezos (anyone else think "The Stain of Bezos" makes a great title to a horror story?) I'd tried twice to go with my own spreadsheet, and that works pretty well when I remember to do it. But when I read this article on The Guardian about a Black-owned alternative, I knew I had found a good alternative to Goodreads.  StoryGraph, here I come!
Anyone else on there?

I'll check it out. Bezos is a blot on the world. Along with a few others I could name... 3/12/2025 09:29:43 pm
Yes, he is...and the muskrat...and so on. I hope they all get their comeuppance.

At our Christmas party my team mentioned that there was an alternate to Goodreads that they liked better and I went 'I'll remember that and check it out.' 3/19/2025 04:34:54 pm
Hah! I know all about that "I'll remember it" and then promptly forget about it routine. ;) I hope you'll like it. Let me know your handle and I will buddy you! Leave a Reply. |
