I'm in the middle camp as well, partly because I love Amazon and Goodreads is an extra I don't really have time for. I thought I'd participate in all the book clubs but really haven't. So I basically post reviews in both places, which is just duplicative work for me. Still, I don't want Amazon to own everything.

I won't quit it but am anxious to see what happens. LibraryThing doesn't work for me - I really only want a place for the future - books I want to read and to see what others think and LT is for books-owned cataloguing which I don't do. I don't keep books because I don't reread. great post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1246220242273461143.post-18387970012526313812013-04-05T04:28:52.891+01:002013-04-05T04:28:52.891+01:00I've decided to wait and see what happens.

Frankly, I was just hoping that Amazon would finally fix the GoodReads server problems, LOL.Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04873109350235219509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1246220242273461143.post-69083783128782903402013-04-02T13:22:15.223+01:002013-04-02T13:22:15.223+01:00I wrote about this yesterday here...Amazon's G...I wrote about this yesterday <a href="http://caitesdayatthebeach.blogspot.com/2013/04/musing-mondaythe-galactic-empire-of.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>...Amazon's Galatic Empire.<br />I have deleted my GR account, more as a protest than anything, and I will stick with Library Thing ..even with the $25 I paid for a lifetime membership. Yes, Amazon, by buying AbeBooks own 40%, but I not seen any effect yet. They have always been very open about how things are run and I like that.caitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05824538078958999767noreply@blogger.com
