It's a website where you can rate and possibly write a review of books you've read so other people have an idea of what they're getting into. You can befriend people with similar interests and see their activity on your feed. It's a little like Facebook but only for books. www.goodreads.com/Here's my review of the Terry Funk book so you can see how it works: www.goodreads.com/review/show/32075147 |

Cormac McCarthy is great. I also love Japanese British author Kazuo Ishiguro.
Has anyone read Tom Robbins? His stuff sounds so weird and absurd I want to check it out some time.
