G is for Goodreads

So for another tool I use but have no clue what I'm doing...



I present for today's book marketing topic... GOODREADS



I mean I SEE stuff... cover contests... Read wish contests... giveaways...





But how do you get on any of those lists? I haven't figured out how you get connected to the mechanisms for them. Are they nomination processes?



So from each of you I am asking



* Is there some particular thing YOU'VE found on Goodreads that works particularly well?



* How do you get involved with it?



*Any wastes of time to avoid?



* Things that can work but have tricks we should know?
