YA AWers on Goodreads
Hello. I just joined Goodreads and am looking for some fellow AWers who read/write YA and are currently using Goodreads.

Here is my profile: http://www.goodreads.com/ElizabethJane398

I haven't added much yet...but it'd be nice to add some reading friends.

I is too! Here's my link as well. Ignore my bad grammar, I've been spending too much time in my southern character's head.

I love Goodreads. It's always fun to see what other people are reading. I only have internet friends on there though :P until the other day when my cousin was automatically added through Facebook and I was like "Oh my god, a real-life person on Goodreads!"

This right here is the only thing stopping me from joining at this point. I've thought about it on and off, but I really don't need another FB-related tracking device.

Well, you don't have to connect it to FB. I use the same email address for both and they're not linked in any way.

I could use more friends, especially ones who read YA. http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/8413556-kyle

^Is that right? I've heard weird stories, and they freaked me out. Feels like FB is categorically trying to take over the entire internet, one social networking site at a time.

But if that's not really the case, I might give GR a try.

My accounts are linked, but only to add friends. I don't share any Goodreads stuff to Facebook (that would look really hokey and weird, IMO). But it's always fun when random real-life people are in my Goodreads feed!
